Just Released: Roly’s New Book

New Book for Harmonica Players Gifts

A wonderful mix of great harmonica advice, stories from the road and recording studios and some general life observations. Roly’s writing style is engaging and interesting from the first page. I couldn’t wait to keep reading it and read it in about 3 sessions.Lynn Marie
Highly entertaining stuff!Steve Baker
… a very enjoyable book of entertaining reminiscences mixed with words of wisdom about musicianship, gleaned from his long experience playing all over Canada and beyond with legendary names like Ronnie Hawkins and Jeff Healey.Brendan Power

“Roly, your harmonica playing, it is outstanding! Simply amazing. You are a wonderful musician. Thank you for your beautiful contribution to our film.”

“I’ve only recently discovered Roly and his fantastic playing. I needed a harp session in a hurry here in the UK, and although half a world away, Roly did the most amazing e-session for me in superquick time, recorded a superb performance, and I now have his number on speed-dial ! He was extremely easy to communicate with, and very easy to work with regarding arrangement directions. I can’t recommend him highly enough and I know we’ll work together again soon.”
