This music contest really blows

About the movie

Hitting the festival circuit this fall and slotted for release in early 2008, Pocket Full of Soul: The Harmonica Documentary chronicles the evolution of this compact, intense and surprisingly diverse instrument.

From it's beginnings as a toy to a highly respected instrument, the harmonica's vast popularity is due in part to it's unique sound and portability and is now mastered by players around the globe.

Pocket Full of Soul documents players in the US, Italy, Germany and Taiwan and features interviews with dozens of musicians, including Huey Lewis, Taylor Hicks (American Idol), James Cotton, Clint Black, Magic Dick (J. Geils Band), Lee Oskar (War), John Popper (Blues Traveler) and Kim Wilson (The Fabulous Thunderbirds), just to name a few.
