Ive never really tried this before, so I worked on it and heres the results, try the start to a swallow while you inhale. You can take this to almost a snore type growl and get a bend. The other method that works is saying Yeee Yooo while using the T B. We have a very goog local harp player who uses the right side of his mouth and holds the harp almost verticle while playing. He seems to tounge block and also pucker and plays octaves using this method. Good Luck to you......
