Mike Whellans has a long and dedicated musical background, but running through it all is the blues. His high energy style and raw and gutsy form of music, has thrilled audiences all over the world. 90% of the album is made up of his own songs, and they are great. This is a 'live' studio album. Mike brought three friends into the studio - a couple of takes for each track, and Mike Whellans' performance shines through.

"This Denmark-based Scot is a genuine virtuoso, excelling on harp, guitar and particularly vocal percussion ... ten of the tracks are originals - tough, gutsy blues and rock' r'n'b'." (ROCK 'N' REEL)

"Whellans is a consummate bluesman: a brilliant songwriter, a sharp singer, and a mean hand at the guitar and harp. Think of him as Jimmy Reed or Willie Dixon transplanted from Lake Michigan to the shores of Loch Lomond." (UTNE READER)
