He learnd much from the blues musicians of the 20s and makes a fantastic One Man Show. On his myspace site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/daveharrisonemanband\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">daveharrisonemanband<\/a> he has a number of videos of his performances. He also tells about the blues musicians that server him as a model for his music.<\/p>\n<p>Very interesting is his fotdella (fotdella -&gt; <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Fotdella\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikipedia<\/a>), a pedal driven bass instrument that can be seen in his One Mand Band documentary. He also uses a suitcase kick drum. Dave changes his instruments during the performance, he playes the guitar, then the fiddle, switches to mandolin and back to the guitar, he sings and plays the harmonica and drums with his suitcase kick drum and plays the bass on his fotdella. That&#8217;s really fantastic to see and hear!<\/p>\n<p><em>My busking led me to the one man band style (no split on the take) and I&#8217;ve developed it from a simple guitar, rack harp and foot operated drums to the current show, which includes 2 steel body guitars, 12 string guitar, fotdella (foot operated bass), mandolin, banjo, 2 fiddles, harps, suitcase kick drum, high-hat and various noisemakers.<\/em><\/p>\n<h4>Playlist Dave Harris<\/h4>\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dave Harris One Man Blues Band\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/videoseries?list=PLC878J8mcBo9plKrNmLBE7H_sWFzneHbx\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Amazon recommendation (partnerlink)<\/p>\n<h4>Blues Dobro (Book &amp; CD) by Doug Cox (Author)<\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"width: 120px; height: 240px;\" src=\"\/\/ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com\/widgets\/q?ServiceVersion=20070822&amp;OneJS=1&amp;Operation=GetAdHtml&amp;MarketPlace=US&amp;source=ss&amp;ref=as_ss_li_til&amp;ad_type=product_link&amp;tracking_id=mandoisland00-20&amp;marketplace=amazon&amp;region=US&amp;placement=1574240552&amp;asins=1574240552&amp;linkId=7755379354d5a1f6a03f83383a675ddb&amp;show_border=true&amp;link_opens_in_new_window=true\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"border-radius: 2px; text-indent: 20px; width: auto; padding: 0px 4px 0px 0px; text-align: center; font: bold 11px\/20px 'Helvetica Neue',Helvetica,sans-serif; color: #ffffff; background: #bd081c  no-repeat scroll 3px 50% \/ 14px 14px; position: absolute; opacity: 1; z-index: 8675309; display: none; cursor: pointer; top: 1714px; left: 20px;\">Merken<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hornby Blues Odyssey &#8211; with Doug Cox and Dave Harris The concert is no longer available &#8211; check for other Blues and Jazz concerts on the CBC site!
