“Mighty Mike Schermer is probably the best blues guitarist,

Mighty Mike Schermer was a fixture on the Bay Area blues scene
for over 20 years when he relocated to Austin TX in 2009 and
joined the touring band of swamp-boogie piano legend Marcia Ball.
He carved out a solid solo career, with four critically acclaimed
CDs, an award-winning single and thousands of performances at
festivals and nightclubs the world over.
He also became the “go-to guy” sideman for such heavyweights as
Elvin Bishop, Maria Muldaur, Angela Strehli, Bonnie Raitt, Howard
Tate, Charlie Musselwhite, Sista Monica, Shana Morrison and many,
many more. Oh yes, …we may be judged by the company we keep, but
when the spotlight shines a solo artist also must be able to
bring the goods all on his own. Mighty Mike Schermer delivers on
all fronts.
