Abstract
A harmonica holder and shroud comprising a base plate and a parallel movable, spring-biased bar, together forming a clamp to grip a harmonica between them in position directly in front of a microphone, as determined by an insulated backstop. A leather shroud is folded over each bar and extends rearward therefrom over and under the microphone so that both harmonica and microphone are enclosed or shrouded together. A sleeve clamp secures the ends of the shrouds, as well as a rearwardly extending support for the base plate, to the microphone to hold the harmonica and shrouds in place.
