They call his music "Mysticssippi" and even Bruce Springsteen is a fan - unique Canadian bluesman Harry Manx returns for a long-
awaited Australia-wide tour, bringing with him his stunning new
"Bread and Buddha" album to follow the success of his "Live at The Basement" DVD of 2004 and his acclaimed "Mantras for Madmen" studio album of 2006.

Harry's been dubbed an "essential link" between the music of East and West. Having lived in Europe, Japan, India and Brazil, it was his five-year tutelage with renowned Rajasthani musician Vishwa Mohan Bhatt (Grammy winner with Ry Cooder for "A Meeting by the River") that forged his now signature east-meets-west style of music, infusing traditional American earthy 12-bar blues with a subtle hint of mystic Indian sounds. Playing lap-slide guitar, harmonica, cigar-box guitar, banjo, stomp box and the 20-stringed Mohan Veena, Harry envelopes his audience into "The Harry Zone" with his warm vocals and haunting original songs, plus his quirky reworks of some classic blues.

His ten albums in as many years have resulted in multiple Juno and Maple Awards, including "Best Roots and Traditional Album (2003)" Harry has received four Maple Blues Awards and most recently he was the recipient of The Great Canadian Blues Award (2007) from CBC National Radio. His 2007 collaboration album with famed Canadian guitarist Kevin Breit (Norah Jones Band) saw them nominated for Best Roots Recording (Duo) at The Western Canada Music Awards.

"For sheer musical adventure, few compare with Manx"…..Bruce Elder, Sydney Morning Herald.

"I've discovered something new tonight, seeing Harry play"….Bruce Springsteen. 2005.
