The Banshee (Reel)
This track was tabbed after the following video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iyo2icrfwwM
The following tab was made for a "Paddy Richter tuning" harmonica, but if you own a standard harmonica (in Richter tuning), all you have to do is replace the "3" (or 3 blow) by "-3"" (or 3 draw whole step bend).
