OFF the GROUND
Hello Everyone!
Many of us, through music, find comfort and solace in times of diversity. During my recovery from Thoracic Spine Surgery three years ago, I fell into the pit of despair. With the assist from Barbara, "Mrs. Harpsmith" and the lyrics from the Record Company's song, "Off the Ground" I was able to recover and prosper!
Inspired, I connected with the amazing Tom Landry--my Bandmate of over 60 years (now living in Nashville, TN), and we recorded "Off the Ground". This time with HARMONICA (Hell Yeah!). The credits include:
Lead Vocals: me, Kinya "the Harpsmith" Pollard
Chorus: me, Kinya singing the Root and 3rd
Chorus: Tom Landry singing the 5th
Harmonica: me, Kinya playing a Harpsmith infused Hohner Rocket_G on the fills and a HS Wilde Tuning_A for my solo
Guitar: Tom Landry
Slide Guitar: Tom Landry
Bass: Tom Landry
Keys: Tom Landry
Drums: Tom Landry
Mastering: Legendary Nashville Sound Engineer, Bobby Bradley (Nephew of Owen Bradley--major influencer of the "Nashville Sound")
Good ideas: thank you Brad Kava!
Master Yoda: David Barrett
I hope you enjoy listening to our recording as much as I enjoyed the process. Thank you my Friends!
Your HARPSMITH, Kinya
