Mick Kinsella started out as a drummer before moving across to the harmonica to pursue his love of traditional music. Skilled in the use of both the diatonic and chromatic, Mick played on numerous sessions before releasing his own 2002 album ‘Harmonica’ with an assortment of genres and some tremendous harmonica work. He went out to tour with Rick Epping and Brendan Power under the name Triple Harp Bypass. Mick likes to tinker with his harmonicas, has a tuition book to his name and teaches each year at the William Clancy festival in Ireland.Select the Chapter Markers tab above to select different sections of the podcast (website version only).YouTube:Played on Michael Flatleys 'Celtic Tiger' CD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7PD2v3YMoTalking Harmonica act:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N96S7Q1nh9ERick Epping: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51YjOrp3RMcLinks:Triple Harp Bypass album:https://www.brendan-power.com/IronLung.phpIrish Traditional Music Archive: https://www.itma.ie/digital-libraryTeachingBlues Harp From Scratch:https://www.armaosmusic.gr/en/music-books/blues-harp-from-scratch-by-mick-kinsella-book-cd-detailMichael McInerney teaching website:https://www.bluethirdmusic.comPodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com  or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICASand Blows Me Away Productions: http://www.blowsmeaway.com/Support the show
