The Who and Why Behind the For All. For Life. Campaign 

Chances are, by now you’ve seen some amazing photographs of diverse, interesting-looking people shown holding or playing a Lee Oskar harmonica, the faces of our “For All. For Life.” campaign. From a real-life fireman, to a tattoo artist, lab tech, teacher, accountant, professional musicians and more, the varied people behind our beloved campaign help tell the Lee Oskar Harmonicas story because they represent the broad spectrum of real people from all walks of life, who share a common love of music and harmonica playing. 

We are so thrilled with this project on many levels, and the feedback we get is “music to our ears!”  Created by acclaimed fine art photographers Michael Weintrob  and Jerry and Lois Photography under Lee’s creative vision, this striking series seems to truly resonate with people, and it perfectly expresses Lee’s longtime belief that the harmonica is an instrument for anyone and everyone.
 
In Lee’s view, people of all ages, stages of life, backgrounds, occupations, perspectives, skill levels, and musical tastes can add so much to their music and their lives by playing harmonica. Lee often says,  “you don’t have to be a virtuoso to gain tremendous enjoyment from the harmonica; it’s a perfect instrument for everyone, from the musically hopeless… to the musically hopeful!”

As Lee and Sri continue to “trot the globe” in pursuit of all things musical, we are excited to tell you about their latest expedition to Denver, CO to visit Stephen Ambrose of Asius Technologies, home of the Ambrose Diaphonic Ear Lens (ADEL™). Fifty years ago, Stephen invented the world's first wireless In-Ear Monitor technology (IEMs).  A professional musician at age 12, Stephen began modifying swimmer's earplugs with tiny speakers and clay to form the first In-Ear Monitor in 1965.  After the design was perfected, he toured with many performers such as Stevie Wonder, Simon & Garfunkel and many others who depend on in-ear to hear their own voices and other musicians over the crowd, and also prevent hearing loss.
 
Lee met Stephen more than 40 years ago in connection with a microphone product that Stephen was inventing. Recently, when Lee was searching for new ear monitors, he was pleasantly surprised to find Stephen’s name once again.  And with Sri’s desire to restore her hearing loss in both ears (90% in one ear and 50% in the other), there was another very important reason for the recent trip to Denver to seek a solution.
 
Sri comments that her visit to Asius HQ was the “most indescribable, life- altering experience” she’s ever had!  In her words, “I heard music on the level that I feel music every day (There is no comparison between these two senses)”.  While there, Lee and Sri even had the chance to see some prototypes that we we hear are being designed for Brian Johnson of AC/DC. Stay Tuned!!!! 
 
We think you will be blown away with this video that tells the story in a powerful way: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7FSPYsmJ9k
And to top it off, Lee, Sri, Stephen and his lovely wife, Garnet had a chance to enjoy the unique Oskar Blues Brewery together!  No correlation to Lee Oskar himself, though - who knows maybe Lee will have a show there someday?

We love ALL our trusted retailers. We are always happy to hear from our customers that they are well cared for.  One of our long-standing, devoted
retailers, who specializes in harmonicas, Ron of Rockn' Ron's Music  shared this complimentary customer post with us. 

"I've tended to write off LO harps because of the low price. I needed a lowF harp for a piece on the David Barrett site so I ordered the LO low F. Ron got it to me super quickly. Well I was very pleasantly surprised by the harp. I was all ready to start taking it apart and gapping etc, but it played great right out of the box across the whole harp plus all draw bends. I will start considering LO more seriously now."   Daniel P.
