MIKE WHEELER BAND

Turn Up!! (2016)



Mighty guitarist, brilliant singer, good composer, Mike Wheeler publishes "Turn Up!!", one of his most torrential albums, in 2016 (for the prestigious Delmark Records label).
Surrounded by valuable musicians (drummer Cleo Cole, bassist Larry Williams, keyboardist Brian James, Kenny Anderson and his trumpet, and Hank Ford playing the tenor saxophone), Wheeler unsheathes his formidable guitaristic energy. Hardly seen with a foil, he prefers the saber and halberd to delight his fans with the cutting blows of his electric 6-string.
A gutsy album, the ideal manifesto of what "blues music beefed up with reinvigorating rock injections" is all about.
