Description: Album: Adding Insight To Injury, monstermikewelch.wordpress.com With over 25 years of touring and recording under his belt, Boston-based blues guitarist Monster Mike Welch is considered a seasoned veteran of the international blues scene despite his relatively young age. Given the nickname “Monster Mike” by actor/Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd at the tender age of 13, Welch has since carved out a niche as a highly accomplished and in-demand guitarist. To date, Welch has released six albums under his own name, and in 2001, he joined the ranks of one of New England’s most beloved blues institutions, Sugar Ray and the Bluetones, where he stayed until 2017, recording five albums and racking up multiple Blues Music Award nominations for the band in that time. In addition, Welch has recorded with Shemekia Copeland, Ronnie Earl, Danielle Nicole, Duke Robillard, Johnny Winter, Victor Wainwright, Nick Moss, the Mannish Boys and Sugaray Rayford, among others. Welch left the Bluetones in 2017 to focus on his partnership with Mike Ledbetter, which led to four Blues Music Awards, seven further BMA nominations, and the formation of the Welch Ledbetter Connection. Welch has received four consecutive Blues Music Award nominations by the Blues Foundation for Instrumentalist-Guitar with a win in 2019, a Boston Music Award for Best Blues Act, and is an inductee of the Rhode Island Music Hall Of Fame. 🎧 Don’s Tunes is about the music.
