El Vaquero Winery is super excited to bring you Mighty Mike Schermer. Thanks to local lap steel virtuoso Charlie Joe Wallace for this recommendation and introduction.
“Mighty Mike Schermer is probably the best blues guitarist, singer and songwriter you’ve never heard of" - Tommy Castro
“Funky and authentic!” - Bonnie Raitt
"Hands down one of the best songwriters in the blues today" - Bill Wax, XM/Sirius Radio "Bluesville"
The opening cut of Mighty Mike Schermer’s 8th solo album describes the 57 year-old guitarist/singer/songwriter’s musical journey perfectly. “It ain’t getting’ old, it’s just getting’ good!”
Much like Schermer’s live shows runs a gamut of music styles from blues to soul to funk to rock & roll, country, Americana and nearly every stop in between. “I guess my music is kinda hard to describe” Schermer laughs “but it also can’t be pigeonholed. I was born in New York, raised in New Mexico. I lived in California for half my life, and Austin, Texas for another quarter of it.
Mighty Mike Schermer has definitely done the work...touring and recording for well over 30 years with such legendary figures as Elvin Bishop, Charlie Musselwhite, Marcia Ball, Bonnie Raitt and many more. He has also carved out a solid solo career, releasing 8 critically acclaimed albums and garnering a ton of attention for his songwriting in particular.
Listening to Mighty Mike Schermer is like sipping a vintage Kentucky Bourbon; sweet guitar licks burn smooth, mellow and go down easy. Smoky vocals are delivered in well-chosen glassware, telling stories that warm from the bottom up and the inside out. Some things just get better with age. Mighty Mike Schermer is Just Gettin’ Good!
