Timeline
Harry Manx (born 1955) is a Canadian musician who blends blues, folk music, and Hindustani classical music.
His official website describes his music as being a "blend Indian folk melodies with slide guitar blues, add a sprinkle of gospel and some compelling grooves and you'll get Manx's unique "mysticssippi" flavour."
Manx plays the slide guitar, harmonica, six-string banjo, mohan veena and Ellis stomp box.
Bhatt is the inventor of the 20-stringed mohan veena, which has become Manx's signature instrument.
He has released twelve albums in twelve years, and has his own record label Dog My Cats Records.
The family moved to Sutton, Ontario, Canada in 1962.
Manx started working with bands as a "roadie" at age 15 and gradually worked his way up to becoming the regular sound man at the well-known El Mocambo (Rock) club in Toronto.
He left Toronto in the late 1970s, when he was 20, to return to Europe and started making money as a busker and also found work at festivals as a blues lapslide guitarist and songwriter.
He then moved to Japan, where he lived and performed for 10 years.
In 1990, while Manx was in Japan, he heard a recording of the Indian slide guitarist Vishwa Mohan Bhatt.
When Manx met Bhatt for the first time in Rajasthan, he had been living in another part of India for years.
He became a student of Bhatt's and remained with him for five years.
They travelled together in India and performed for large audiences.
In 2000, Manx moved back to Canada and set up residence in Saltspring Island, British Columbia and recorded his first Canadian album at the Barn Studios.
This debut recording features 14 tracks of his one-man-band sound on the lap slide guitar, the Mohan Veena, the harmonica and vocals.
Manx is married to Najma Manx, and together they have one son, Hector Oswald Manx.
In a 2002 interview, in their house on Saltspring Island, Manx talked about the stresses of leaving his wife and son when on touring.
"This guy here, he doesn’t care who I’m opening for," Harry said.
"He just wants me home once in a while. It gets tough sometimes. We need to keep that connection all the time. We talk on the phone every day. You should see our phone bill."
Manx's musical style has been called an "essential musical link" between the East and the West.
His songs are "short stories that use the essence of the blues and the depth of Indian ragas to draw you in".
He has received much recognition and many awards, including: seven Maple Blues Awards, six Juno nominations, the Canadian Folk Music Award in 2005 for Best Solo Artist, and CBC Radio’s "Great Canadian Blues Award" in 2007.
Manx was a nominee in the 8th Annual Independent Music Awards for his cover of Bruce Springsteen's "I'm on Fire".
Manx is a longtime collaborator with Canadian guitarist Kevin Breit and Australian keyboardist Clayton Doley.
Manx was born on the Isle of Man, the son of a Scottish merchant marine and a Manx mother.
