Googled it. Shirey sez:

"Most harmonicas are tuned to a diatonic scale, a major scale. The 
harmonicas I play are tuned to harmonic and natural minors as well. I 
stack them on top of each other to play jazz chords and dissonant 
chord clusters, then I run them through pitch-shifters and play them 
through bull horns to get my signature sound."

Neat!
