not every note is on the diatonic harp.  Some notes you have to bent.  Today I'm going to show you.  

Q and A

what is bending?  Bending is when you take the reed of a harmonica and literary bend it to make a different note.  It's that wailing sound in a lot of blues.

Can I bend on a blow note?  As far as I know, no. there is a way to change the note to another note but that's called over blowing and that's another subject.

How is it accomplished?  first tighten you're lip muscles.  then lift you're tongue up.  that's about it!
