"Monster" Mike Welch - Just Like It Is] Mike Welch, from the American Northeast, has been on the international blues scene for 15 years, yet the man is only 28-29 years old! Dubbed "Monster Mike” by Dan Ackroyd at the opening of the 1st House of Blues club some 15 years ago, Mike has seen his career move through three distinct phases already, from young teen phenom in the mid 1990s, to in-demand session guitarist, to a deep, soulful solo artist whose early promise had been fully realized with the release of "Just Like It Is”. Welch met Bob Margolin that same night at the House of Blues opening, and surprised Bob with his asking to be shown some of the deepest nuances of Muddy Water’s playing style – all at only 13 year of age. Mike gained his love of blues early, being influenced by listening to his father’s record collection at a very young age. Welch was playing guitar by age 8 and participating in blues jams by the age of 11. He was bitten early and deeply by this music that we all care so much about. One of Mike’s most noted influences is Ronnie Earl (a great choice for an influence!), and I also hear Duke Robillard influences, as well as some of the gritty Texas players.
-----------------------------------------------------
Monster Mike has appeared on releases from such noted artists as Sugar Ray Norcia, Johnny Winter, Nick Moss and Shemekia Copeland, as well as lesser-known artists (at least to the general public) such as Tom Hambridge (Susan Tedeschi), Brian Templeton (ex Radio Kings), Ottomatic Slim and Chicago Bob Nelson. Mike has also released a slew of his own albums (at least 6 now, with his 1st CD being released when he was just 16), each one showing his growth as a musician and vocalist. Speaking of his vocals, Mike’s singing has become very soulful as he’s aged (although he’s still only around 28!). To my ears his voice sounds very similar in tone/texture (but not in histrionics) to that of Jack Bruce during Bruce’s years with Cream. Something of note in the liner notes to this CD is the fact that Mike chose to list his performing vocals 1st, with his guitar playing listed 2nd.
