The Mikes at Ophelia's

Members of The Mihali Band, West End Blend, Deep Banana Blackout, & More!

The Mikes is a one-night, high-energy collaboration bringing together some of the most respected players from the modern jam, funk, and improvisational scene. Anchored by multiple “Mikes” on stage, the band blends deep grooves, extended improvisation, and genre-bending arrangements into a set that’s never played the same way twice.

Featuring members of The Mihali Band, West End Blend, Deep Banana Blackout, and more, the band pulls from funk, reggae, soul, rock, and classic jam influences, creating a spontaneous, musician-driven experience built entirely in the moment. Expect rotating leads, surprise pairings, and crowd-driven energy as these artists step outside their primary projects and into a collaborative, free-flowing format.

This isn’t a tribute set — it’s a true family jam, fueled by chemistry, musicianship, and shared experiences on stage.

Each performance is unique, unrepeatable, and rooted in the joy of live collaboration.
