I will second that. He plays, sings and runs sound as well. Jackie has been a well kept secret for years.

I have never met Mr.Harmon but I saw him play and heard him sing at the 2012 Dallas show and was very awed by his playing and singing.

He's the kind of bass man any steel player would love to be on stage with!!

It has been a year since this topic was started. I want to comment again about Jackie Harmon. I have on a few occasions had the opportunity to jam with him. He makes it more exciting and his singing is just awesome. Throw in the bass playing and you have one talented man. I played a spot at the Texas show in 2012 on Thursday evening and Jackie played bass and sang. I also played a spot for the ETSGA in Tyler,Texas and Jackie drove about three hours to get there, played bass and sang then left. He would not take one dime for gas. As much as a talented man that he is, he is just the same as an individual. You ever get the opportunity to play music with him do not pass it up, it would sure be your loss.
