Easy Blues Licks - Beginner Blues Harmonica Lesson & Tab

Writer's picture: Liam WardLiam Ward

Hello! In today's harmonica lesson we're playing some easy blues licks. A lick (or phrase) is basically a collection of notes that sound good together. We'll be playing over a classic 12 bar blues shuffle backing track (I sell a full set of backing tracks). You will need clean notes for this lesson, so make sure you know how to play single notes first. I hope you enjoy the lesson!


Here are the harp tabs for the blues licks in this lesson:


Lick A:

-4 4 -3 -2


Lick B:

1 2 -2 -2


Lick C:

-5 -4 4 -4 4 3 -2 -2


Lick D:

-2 -2 -2 -2 2 -1 -1


Thanks for studying with me today. I hope you enjoyed the lesson!
