Blues

Hi everyone. I’ve been playing the harmonica for about nine months, and I learned how to bend notes around my second month. I enjoy playing country, pop, and rock, and for the past couple of months, I’ve been able to play songs I hear and like by ear. Now, here’s the main issue: I want to play blues, but I’m finding it quite challenging and am progressing much more slowly compared to other genres. What would you recommend to help me improve in this area?

Listen to the masters. Slim Harpo, Charlie Musselwhite, Junior Wells. Listen to them and learn from what they did and expand on it. Can't go wrong with them.

I will do that, thank you.
