If you’re a non-musician or a struggling harmonica player that yearns to have great time playing the songs you love with soul and feeling, please know this: Your lack of success is NOT…
…because you’re musically hopeless … or because you don’t own the correct harmonica … or because you don’t practice “enough”… or because you’re tone deaf…
None of the Above! The reason you may be feeling stuck and are not able to freely jam is because of something much more simple… and much easier to solve…
Do you want to waste more time learning the slow way and developing bad habits? Or are you finally ready to liberate a life long harmonica adventure that will bring a spark of joy to your life…and inspire anyone who is fortunate enough to hear you play?
Want to discover how JP has helped thousands of students fulfill their dream of playing harmonica and learn their favorite songs in record time? Okay, then. Let’s begin…
From JP Allen...
Hello Harmonica Lover,
I want you to be able to do more than just play songs…I want you to play your favorite songs with soul and feeling.
Harmonica is without a doubt one of the easiest instruments to learn. If that’s the case, then why do the majority of people get frustrated, and often quit?
teaching them songs BEFORE they are ready
This just leads to bad habits and a whole lot of frustration…
Students end up learning songs but they don’t sound good. Their playing is stiff, airy, and they often make a lot of mistakes.
There’s an Easier Way to Play Your Favorite Songs and Sound Good (and it’s a whole lot more fun)…
In His First 5 Minutes of Playing,
A Random Stranger
Was Ripping On a Microphone
When you are actually playing harmonica musically you will feel an energy of enthusiasm bubbling up inside of you. And, guess what: It’s going to feel good when others encourage you to keep it up (instead of trying to take the wind out of your sails).
Because, within the first few weeks of playing, most try to learn songs with a tight mouth position. This is a bad habit that will cripple your forward progress.
Does Your Playing Ever Sound Stiff or Airy?
Guess what? It’s unlikely that there’s anything wrong with your harmonica. It’s more likely you’re developing bad habits by tightly puckering your lips.
The Deep Relaxed Mouth Embouchure is the key to playing songs with a sweet, bluesy tone.
Because most harmonica books and teachers explain this essential technique improperly!
Because tightly puckering your lips may offer you a quick start. But it’s a dead-end street!
RECOMMENDATION: I definitely want you to succeed whether or not you get my lessons, so please practice this technique in front of a mirror to make sure you’re maintaining the proper angle of the harmonica.

I Gave These Two Guys Their First Lesson Right On Stage… And We Blew The Room Away!
(If You Want To!)
“Two months and I’ll be ready to play on stage…? Not on your life! Besides, JP, I don’t really care about playing on stage, I just want to play for my own enjoyment…”
That’s cool. You definitely picked the best instrument to have fun with. But wouldn’t it be cool to know that in your back pocket at any moment you have the ability to make people happy?
Some students want to play in a band or jam with friends.
Some want to play in a church choir
Some want to make kids happy
Most of my students are happy to just play for their own enjoyment.
No matter what your goals, I know that if I learned, you can learn too…
I Picked Up the Harmonica at Northwestern University After One of My Best Friends Died In A Motorcycle Wreck
I was so depressed I couldn’t study or eat.
My musician friend, John, was determined to cheer me up. He asked me if I wanted to go to the music store to buy a harmonica. I told him, “No.”
I was not a natural-born musician and I didn’t come from a musical family. In fact, I quit piano as a kid and felt like a total musical failure.
But John helped me out of my rut and treated me to my very first harmonica.
I fell so in love with playing music, it pulled me out of my depression. And whenever I felt sad or lonely, the harmonica was always around to make me feel better.

“When my dad died I inherited his harmonica. I decided to learn to play in his memory. I struggled for a while with other books and videos.
I just spent an hour going through your first video lesson and… “WOW!!!!!!!!!” I have to say, with total disbelief, that I sound good! I can even play notes and songs I had given up on. I know my dad would be proud. Thanks JP!” ~ Sam Barber
