Please allow me to tell you about another harmonica trio that I have been involved with for the past 9 years. The name of the group is:
THE HERITAGE HARMONICA BOYS
The HARMONICA BOYS come from Heritage Baptist University in Indianapolis Indiana. The members of the group are Russell Dennis, Jr., (chromatic, sextet, harmonetta, diatonic), and his brother Daniel Dennis (chromatic, and chord). From time to time, they have had a bass harmonica player who is a student at the college, however at this time, their bass player is myself, George Miklas.
The HARMONICA BOYS book performances as often as humanly possible, always leaving time for their respective families, studies, and University responsiblities. They can easily book 150 engagements in any given calendar year yeilding an average of 3 performances per week. Their performances are primarily in Baptist churches, however, they do consider other public and private performances to present the gospel along with their unique harmonica ministry.
My involvement with the HARMONICA BOYS began in 1984, the same year that I began playing chord harmonica with the HARMONICATS. Over the past 9 years, I have served as arranger, musician, teacher, and friend. I have helped to break in three bass players, all of whom eventually became preachers, got married, or went on to other ministries.
I have come to really enjoy my friendship with the Dennis'. In the last 15 months, we have completed two Christmas banquet tours and I have never enjoyed myself more.
Indianapolis is a 370 mile drive for me, but I enjoy the friendship, and I LOVE to play the harmonica!
KEEP ON HARPIN' George
