Mike Bourne has been knocking audiences out around the globe with his unique style of jump blues, blues and roots music in clubs like the House of Blues, Hard Rock Cafe, Buddy Guys Legends and Festivals including the Roots and Blues Festival, the International Jazz and Blues festival in Manila, and the Coleman Hawkins Blues Festival. He's recorded and played with legends including Otis Rush, Sam Lay (Muddy Waters and Bob Dylan's drummer), BarrelHouse Chuck, and many more. With long stints in Chicago, Atlanta and Kansas City, now he's headed back home to the windy city. Mike has joined forces with saxophone ace Sam Treinen, longtime KC bassist Cardy Quintero, piano man Jimmy Beisman and veteran drummer Bryan Herrman -- and their high energy show already has the town buzzing with weekly Thursday gigs in downtown. Already booked for festivals in Macau China, and the Coleman Hawkins Festival this September in the Midwest -- the Mike Bourne band is spreading the blues tradition started on Maxwell -- but with new songs and new grooves.
