Shenandoah Mac Sinise

I watched Mac, the guy playing harmonica in the video's father being interviewed. Thought you all might find this interesting



“Shenandoah” Director: Matthew J Blake "With music so deep in his heart, unable to play drums now, Mac’s mother Moira suggested he get a harmonica, which he did, and he started teaching himself how to play. I have a dear friend, Medal of Honor recipient Sammy Davis, who plays harmonica and tells a story of learning to play 'Shenandoah' while in the jungles of Vietnam. I gave Mac a video of Sammy playing it, suggesting the Mac learn it. He did, and it was beautiful. Listening to Mac play it, I suggested that he ask Oliver to do a string arrangement to back him up. As long as they would have the strings at the session for 'Arctic Circles', why not do 'Shenandoah' also? And they did…a beautiful version of this beloved American classic. Thank you Mac. I love you." Gary Sinise Proud father of Mac Sinise Vinyl coming soon! Check back for updates. Produced & Arranged by Oliver Schnee (ASCAP) Recorded by Bill Schnee at Sunset Sound Hollywood, California on July 17, 2023 Mixed by Bill Schnee at Schnaze Franklin, Tennessee ©️ 2023 McCanna Sinise / Oliver Schnee ℗ 2023 McCanna Music / Oliver Schnee
