Roly Platt: Pete Pedersen Lifetime Achievement Award Nomination

I’m truely humbled that I’ve been nominated for the Pete Pedersen Lifetime Achievement Award for the US’s SPAH international harmonica convention.

Nominees for 2022:

John Mayall
Roly Platt
Phil Wiggins
Jerry Fierro
Buddy Greene
Ronnie Shellist

To even be considered for this award and to be included in this list of greats means a ton to me.

I had the pleasure of meeting and playing with Pete many years in Toronto. So this is especially cool.
