Mitch Kashmar - Wake Up & Worry Mitch Kashmar - Wake Up & Worry

So by now if you have been reading my reviews and looking at my pics you already know how much I dig blues harmonica. Mitch is a recent addition to my favorites list after his last year’s release of “Nickels and Dimes”. He is just so energetic and real; that kinda style gets me every time! The only downfall to diggin’ Mitch is that like so many other of my favs, he tours almost exclusively in CA. Not a bad thing for all you folks that live out that way I suppose…I’m just jealous! I did get the honor of meeting Mitch at the Handy Awards this past May in Memphis and he was really cool. Check out Delta Groove Productions, his record label, as there are a lot of tasty bites to get if you’re hooked on the blues like I am.
