VizzTone is proud to welcome a
new artist to the family with this slammin' new album!
MIKEY
JUNIOR
TRAVELING
SOUTH
What is the future of the blues?
Who will lead the charge?
Well, for blues fans in the Northeast United
States, that question is routinely answered every night Mikey
Junior hits the stage. His infectious personality and absolute command
of his medium leave little doubt the blues is in good hands.
Self-taught
from his impressive collection of blues vinyl, Mikey was a full time musician
before he graduated high-school. By the time he was in his early twenties,
seasoned players were taking notice and it wasn’t long before one blues society
after another scrambled to get him to their stage. Before long, Mikey was a
staple of the summer blues circuit on the East Coast.
So it came as no
surprise that his newest release found its way into the eclectic and youthful
roster of the VizzTone Label Group. TRAVELING SOUTH reveals a
young blues artist at the top of his game, telling stories we can all relate to,
while drawing us deep into the roots of blues music via his utter mastery of the
diatonic and chromatic harmonicas.
Produced by Dave
Gross for SwingNation/VizzTone, this album has a level of depth,
maturity, restraint and musicality that reaches the soul through his impassioned
vocals, bringing a whole new dimension to his already impressive catalog.
Well-written originals and choice covers are brought to life with a vision that
truly separates Mikey from his
contemporaries.
