HARRY MANX- Live in Concert presented by: PORTER MUSIC THURSDAY OCTOBER 8, 2026 at 7:30 PM CONCERT HALL at VICTORIA HALL The “Mysticssippi Blues Man” and one of Canada’s most revered and distinctive musical voices brings his world-renowned live show to intimate venues across Ontario! Harry Manx has spent decades carving out a singular musical path. He is known for his extraordinary ability to fuse deep blues grooves with the spiritual depth of Indian classical music. Switching effortlessly between slide guitar, harmonica, banjo, and the remarkable Mohan veena — a 20-stringed instrument taught to him by Indian master Vishwa Mohan Bhatt — Manx creates performances that are immersive, transportive, and deeply human. “A seamless fit between blues and Indian classical music” - DownBeat Magazine “Deliciously addictive" - The New York Times “Canada’s most expressive blues player” - Billboard Magazine Seated concert Family friendly $49 Early Bird Tickets (very limited) DON'T miss your chance to see live music at its finest! “Watching Harry play tonight I feel like I learned something new …. ” - Bruce Springsteen Harry Manx is an artist that critics have occasionally had a hard time getting their minds around. His unique amalgam of blues and other American roots music, classical Indian forms, and bits of rock, pop, and folk makes him difficult to pigeonhole, and self-appointed gatekeepers of those traditions sometimes bemoan his lack of purity, stubbornly missing the point. But Manx’s trip is really quite easy to grasp: He’s an accomplished and adventurous lap-slide guitarist - whether playing a National resonator, a solidbody lap-steel, a modified banjo or cigar-box guitar, or his signature 20-string Mohan Veena - and a compelling singer with a rich, warm, and soulful voice who writes intelligent and compassionate songs and puts them over with heartfelt conviction.” Barry Cleveland, Guitar Player Magazine https://youtu.be/VO73Fczq9IM?si=yIaPtPb6rsJomR3y https://youtu.be/JFY8bW3xsHg?si=TISLtrHpNjG_P8Cp Early Bird Tickets (available until August 31st) are $49 plus service fee/Regular tickets are $60 plus service fee and available at the Experience Cobourg Box Office: 855-372-2210 or https://tickets.cobourg.ca/TheatreManager/1/online?performance=4102
