Harry Manx, born in 1955 on the Isle of Man, is a Canadian musician known for blending blues, folk music, and Hindustani classical music. He began his career as a roadie at age 15, eventually becoming the regular sound man at Toronto's El Mocambo club. In the late 1970s, Manx moved to Europe and later Japan, where he lived and performed for a decade. Manx returned to Canada in 2000 and recorded his debut album, Dog My Cat, released in 2001. He has since released numerous albums including Wise and Otherwise (2002), Jubilee (2003), and Mantras for Madmen (2005). Manx's unique style earned him seven Maple Blues Awards, six Juno nominations, the Canadian Folk Music Award in 2005 for Best Solo Artist, and CBC Radio’s "Great Canadian Blues Award" in 2007.
