Still buzzing from last Wednesday at @TheAnthem!
Nothing like bringing a harmonica to a guitar fight - especially when those guitars belong to @coryjwong and @mjlettieri . Thanks for having me up there, gentlemen. The speed limit was definitely violated.

🎟️ DM me to be my guest 🎟️

I’ve always said that limitations are in the mind, not in the instrument. Whether it’s a harmonica or the human spirit, the possibilities are endless when we dare to dream bigger.

That’s why I’m proud to invite you to join me at the Big Give Champagne Brunch, where my music meets a mission that speaks to my soul - @OurStompingGround. These visionaries are doing for social change what I do with my harmonica: breaking every preconception of what’s possible.

Be my personal guest at this celebration of potential. They’re giving me 12 guest seats for those ready to be part of this transformative movement.

Together, we’ll support creating independent living opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities - because everyone deserves the chance to write their own story.

DM me to claim your spot. Trust me, this is one performance - and one cause - you won’t want to miss.

Repost: @paolabilancieri_av Not very often does an artist impact me like @fredyonnet does (every time I listen to him🙏). He’s not only an incredibly talented harmonica player but also a charismatic and empathetic person✨✨ a great source of inspiration for my work🙏This time, I animated a drawing I did of him at @bluenotenyc -using music from his performance at @tinydeskconcertclips -. I must thank @agus_vives for helping me edit this video✨🫶🏻.”

Repost from @carlasims WHO KNEW the harmonica could be so... gangsta?
Frederic Yonnet performs live on Eric B and Rakim’s “Paid in Full,” adding his melodic swagger through the classic beat. With an introduction by Dave Chappelle and Rakim himself in the background giving the nod, Yonnet’s harmonica earns its hip-hop stripes.

Experience the harmonica virtuoso live at the Blue Note Jazz Club, NYC, July 22-24. On Thursday, July 25, Yonnet heads to SOUTH in Philly with Gerald Veasley. On Aug 1, you can catch him at the Kennedy Center Terrace Theater.

Don’t sleep on this.

As @donnellrawlings says… “from the streets to the creeks!” Rain or shine! Thanks davechappelle for bringing back the magic of summer camp!

Repost @carla_sims
Who says summer camp is just for kids?

Dave Chappelle brought back the magic of Chappelle’s Summer Camp with three nights of Comedy in the Cornfield during the 4th of July week.

Highlights for me included a serene canoe trip down the @MadRiver with @fredyonnet. Despite checking the weather, clouds gave way to rains creating a mystical mist that was surprisingly refreshing. There was a lot of adventure on the water but I’ll let @luenell and anyone else who flipped their canoes or kayaks in a foot of water tell that story. 😂Eventually the skies cleared just in time for us to enjoy a nature walk in @glen_helen_regional_park delicious BBQ and some cool activations at Donnell-Land. Thanks @donnellrawlings.

The comedy shows at the @wirrigpavilionys were great and the after-parties were endless. A spectacular fireworks display capped it all off! (I’ll share photos from all that in my next post.)

Thanks DaveChappelle for consistently creating unforgettable memories.
