Some Comments - Harry Manx - Copping Community Hall - 25 May 2012

As the punters tell me, there are only so many times and ways they can say they really like the shows, format,etc. at the Copping Community Hall. Here's the few I received for this concert.
Scroll down to other posts as there are many more comments than this for every Copping concert.

"Copping Community Hall is the 'best venue in OZ'."

"thanks for the great concerts - we really enjoyed Harry and it's amazing to see such a quality act in such an intimate venue!"

"exceptional concert with Harry Manx on Friday night. Even tho we were up the back of the hall the sound quality was mind blowing. I was transported by Harry and his music to a very pleasant place that night."

"great concert....we are spoilt with your efforts."

"the Copping show was fantastic. Intimate, warm and funny with great audience-artist interaction. We had amazing sound quality in the back of the hall showing your commitment to a top quality sound system. All of us left thinking we were mighty privileged to have seen a global act up-close and just for us. Look forward to more shows at the Copping Hall."

"even with the weather, it was a fine evening. This humble man has lots of class."

"we both enjoyed the show immensely. We have been to at least 4 shows now and they have all been excellent, good artists, good venue and good organisation. You have to be congratulated for putting it all together."

"full points to you Bob! We had a great night. Very much looking forward to your next event."

"overall an extremely enjoyable night as all the other Copping concerts have been."

'thank you for a great night! I thought Harry was in fine form and I enjoyed Yeshe. Thank you once again for organising a great night."

About Harry Manx + video clips

 Harry Manx has been dubbed an “essential link” between the music of East and West, creating musical short stories that wed the tradition of the Blues with the depth of classical Indian ragas. His unique sound is bewitching and deliciously addictive to listen to.

 Born on the Isle of Man, Manx spent his childhood in Canada and left in his teens to live in Europe, Japan, India and Brazil. He honed his hypnotic live show on street corners, in cafes, bars and at festivals. But it was Indian music that captured his attention and in the mid 80s he began five-year tutelage with Rajasthani Indian musician Vishwa Mohan Bhatt (Grammy winner with Ry Cooder for A Meeting by the River). Receiving the gift of Bhatt’s custom-made, self-designed Mohan Veena (a 20-stringed sitar/guitar hybrid) was the catalyst for Harry to forge a new path with his now signature east-meets-west style of music. While the mohan veena itself is beyond exotic, Manx uses it within traditional Western sound structures.

 A successful touring performer, Manx has brought his “breathtaking” solo shows across Canada and into the USA, Australia, and Europe. He has appeared at many prestigious festivals, world-class theatres, concert halls and infamous Blues clubs around the globe. Playing the Mohan Veena, lap steel, harmonica, stomp box, and banjo, Manx quickly envelops the audience into what has been dubbed “the Harry Zone” with his warm vocals and the hauntingly beautiful melodies of his original songs.

 Over the last 10 years, Harry Manx released 11 albums and has garnered a room full of awards including seven Maple Blues Awards, six Juno nominations, the Canadian Folk Award in 2005 for Best Solo Artist and won CBC Radio’s Great Canadian Blues Award in 2007.

 Blend Indian folk melodies with slide guitar blues, add a sprinkle of gospel and some compelling grooves and you’ll get Manx’s unique “mysticssippi” flavour. It’s hard to resist, easy to digest and keeps audiences coming back for more.
