Harry Manx will present an evening of American roots and Indian slide-guitar stylings on Monday, Sept. 14, in Halling Recital Hall of the Performing Arts Center.
The performance, sponsored by the Department of Music, will be at 7:30 p.m. General admission is $12; tickets for Minnesota State Mankato students are $9.
A successful touring performer, Manx has performed his solo shows across Canada and in the United States, Australia and Europe. He has appeared at prestigious festivals, world-class theatres, concert halls and blues clubs around the globe.
Guitar Player Magazine calls Manx’s music “a blend of soulful, raspy vocals, poetic lyrics and the whining drones and mysterious melisma of Indian classical music.”
Manx’s unique “mysticssippi” flavor blends Indian folk melodies with slide guitar blues, a sprinkle of gospel and compelling grooves. Manx plays the Mohan Veena, lap steel, harmonica, stomp box and banjo, enveloping the audience with warm vocals and haunting melodies.
