Monster Mike Welch Blues guitarist performs at Crossroads Coffeehouse, 3 Great Pond Road, North Andover on Saturday October 1, at 8p.m.
Monster Mike Welch is one of the East Coast's best-loved Blues guitarists and, at 31 years old, is already a twenty-year veteran of the international Blues scene. At 13, he opened the bill at the Cambridge House of Blues, sharing a stage with Junior Wells, Joe Walsh and actor Dan Aykroyd. It was the latter who gave him his nickname, "Monster Mike." Recent years have found Mike dividing his time between guest stints (Sugar Ray & The Bluetones, Nick Moss, Johnny Winter, Darrell Nulisch and more)and his own work in the European Blues scene. Don’t miss a chance to see this international star and his band in North Andover for two sets of rip roaring blues.
