This event is to be hosted on the Foxfire Ranch in Waterford, Mississippi May 21st and 22nd, 2011.

"Last year's event was transcendental, in some cases life changing. We had people crying tears of joy...literally...from being immersed in, and surround by so many blues harp lovers & legends" says Jeff Silverman of harmonica411, co-sponsor of the event. "I think most came away having learned something important about not only their playing, but about what the blues really means to them. This year's team of faculty/performer's promises to go even deeper"

"BUT, let's not forget the entertainment value as well". Silverman adds, "I mean, c'mon...Sugar Blue and Jason Ricci at the same event...teaching and performing? Charlie Sayles on stage...how wonderfully rare is that? Who has more mojo than Charlie? Satan and Adam - together again - the weekend of Sterling "Mr. Satan" Magee's 75th birthday? Not to mention the swinging Sonny Boy Terry and his band and the incomparable Jimi Lee. PLUS for those who haven't heard Deak Harp honk on that blues whistle or have had the pleasure of watching Brandon Bailey on stage...well, they are in for a real treat!

If you are a blues harp player or even a blues lover in general, pro or hobbyist, if you love to jam with brother and sister blues harpists or maybe want to camp out (or hotel it) in the warm Mississippi hill country and be soaked in blues harp lore, learning and music..dollar-for-dollar, player-for-player, this is THE place to be this summer."

Hill Country Harmonica is a two day blues Harp Homecoming event in Waterford, Mississippi. Onsite camping (with showers and facilities)! There is additional camping and motels nearby. (Foxfire Ranch is 50 miles south of the Memphis International Airport & about 20 miles north of Oxford, MS and easily accessible by major highways.)
