Today on Appetite for Distraction: Metal Harmonica!

Posted by Lisa Christiansen on Sep 03, 2010

Metal is an exciting genre of music to love...and follow. One never really knows where and how it will splinter. Take the above, posted on my facebook this morning from Pembroke's Ontatio's Daniel "Sugarlips" Oulelette. He has a new project called Heavy Metal Harmonica, and his "Sweet Child Of Mine" is pretty nice, but I am looking forward to hearing the Metallica and Judas Priest promised for the release next year.

It seems that Daniel has a goal in mind, and it's to take the harmonica out of its bluegrass/blues ghetto and open it up. He's also done a cover of Lady Gaga's "Poker Face."

Metal - changing the world, one country instrument at a time. I eagerly await a smokin' Iron Maiden banjo number. But for of the "traditional" metal - check out my Full Metal Podcast 3.
