Playing the Virtual Blues
Playing the Virtual Blues Harmonica music team building is an excellent way to bring co-workers together virtually and to connect passion and fun back to working from home.
Event Overview
"The blues tells a story. Every line of the blues has a meaning."
Get Your Team In Tune!
With lively and friendly instruction, your team will learn everything you need to know to get started playing the blues. Each team member receives their own harmonica and is guided through the basics of how to get a great blues harmonica sound. And it’s not just the blues – teams learn how to play classic rock songs like “Piano Man,” “Love Me Do,” and “Rawhide”.
Playing music together grows team harmony. The research shows that our brains literally link up with each other when we play music and that music enhances how we think, reason, and create. Play the Blues Harmonica team building is an excellent way to practice effective listening and communication, create the kind of team synergy a great band has, and connect passion, confidence, and fun with the important work to be done together.
Starting with the basics of how to hold the instrument correctly and breathe properly, your virtual Playing The Blues harmonica facilitator guides you all the way to play with a convincing classic blues sound. Within minutes, everyone on your team will be playing a real blues song.
We even include the ancient bluesy secrets of bending notes, vibrato, vocal effects, and more.
- Everyone is mailed a harmonica to play.
- They learn the art of the harmonica with a master musician virtually.
- Teams create their own bands and find their magic and rhythm.
- Create a Muddy Waters-style call and response song with their team!
The grand finale features your group as the stars: perform an original Muddy Waters-style call and response song that you’ve created, and even create a recording of your performance captured on video!
Event Details
Space Requirement
This is virtual and remote. People can’t play ‘together’ at the same time because of Zoom millisecond time lag, but they can play ‘call and response’ – meaning one person plays something, there’s a space and the other person either plays the same thing back or something new – it’s a classic blues song technique.
Ideal For
Playing Virtual Blues Harmonica is a high energy experience, that literally, blows away perceived limitations to prove that with teamwork, good communication, and belief, anything is possible. It transforms teams by stretching personal limits, opening minds, and bringing individuals together in a unique and compelling way that will be long remembered. The team will be energized and exhilarated – they can now play the blues.
Tailoring
Breakout rooms will be used so people can create their own songs, can play one-on-one with other people and in small groups.

It was a great time. I have only received positive feedback from my team which is a rare thing. Please let Stuart know we loved it.
WOW! What an incredible time we had with Team Bonding last week at our All Hands event! Your team was phenomenal, and with the leadership and charisma of Scott, pulled off keeping the attentions of a very lively crowd!
The hunt was a huge success!! Even this skeptical crowd of mobile app building designers and engineers were pleasantly surprised with the very cool smartphone application and everyone had a really great time! Michael and his team did a terrific job facilitating and the whole event went very smoothly.
“It was an amazing day… and the team really enjoyed Tools for Schools. It meant a lot to them to help children in the community. There were many teary eyes, including mine!”
