The “Mysticssippi Blues Man” and one of Canada’s most revered and distinctive musical voices brings his world-renowned live show to intimate venues across British Columbia!

Harry Manx has spent decades carving out a singular musical path. He is known for his extraordinary ability to fuse deep blues grooves with the spiritual depth of Indian classical music. Switching effortlessly between slide guitar, harmonica, banjo, and the remarkable Mohan veena — a 20-stringed instrument taught to him by Indian master Vishwa Mohan Bhatt — Manx creates performances that are immersive, transportive, and deeply human.

“Watching Harry play tonight I feel like I learned something new …. ”
Bruce Springsteen
Harry Manx is an artist that critics have occasionally had a hard time getting their minds around. His unique amalgam of blues and other American roots music, classical Indian forms, and bits of rock, pop, and folk makes him difficult to pigeonhole, and self-appointed gatekeepers of those traditions sometimes bemoan his lack of purity, stubbornly missing the point. But Manx’s trip is really quite easy to grasp: He’s an accomplished and adventurous lap-slide guitarist – whether playing a National resonator, a solidbody lap-steel, a modified banjo or cigar-box guitar, or his signature 20-string Mohan Veena – and a compelling singer with a rich, warm, and soulful voice who writes intelligent and compassionate songs and puts them over with heartfelt conviction.”

There are concerts, and then there are rare musical gatherings that feel quietly profound. Harry Manx creates the latter. This is music that doesn’t rush, doesn’t shout, and doesn’t rely on spectacle — instead, it invites you to listen deeply, feel fully, and leave changed. Audiences don’t just attend a Harry Manx show; they experience it. These nights linger long after the final note fades, becoming the kind of concert people talk about for years. If you value artistry, atmosphere, and the rare magic that happens when a room truly listens, this is a performance you’ll want to be part of.
