Mike Wheeler has a vast knowledge of music and a voice thatβs reminiscent of the late Sam Cooke. He can sing and play everything so well that you may forget what the original record even sounds like. From Jazz to Rock, from popular music to Top 40, he slides in and out of musical genres with sophistication, ease and indulgence. He has traveled the world as an ambassador for Chicago blues music. Mike was inducted in the Chicago Blues Hall of Fame in 2014.
