"Acoustic Music Centre @St Bride's sell-out shows 2011 to 2014 (incluisve)!  Winnner - "Best Act" (Mettman Blues Week 2008, Germany).  Unashamedly good rockin' 12-bar blues on 6/12-string guitars (accurately picked at eye-watering speed), mouth-harps (Mike just packs 'em with great music and blows it at you), and a wee tottie drum-kit.  Hear his show-stopping vocal percussion; a veritable tour de force.  Mike sings, plays drums, writes songs, and just seems to have boundless energy - and that's what it's all about: energy!  The most dynamic one-man blues band around the Forth delta.  There's one guy on-stage, but close your eyes ... it's Mike Whellans Band!
(Edinburgh Festival Fringe programme, 2015)

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

"Mike Whellans is the real thing, a keeper of the one-man blues band flame that burned so passionately in the work of this highly specialized form’s masters, including Doctor Isaiah Ross, Jesse Fuller and Whellans’ great British forerunner, Tony ‘Duster’ Bennett. Like all true bluesmen and women, when Whellans sings and plays, he means it. He can set a scene of darkness and foreboding as the Boogie Man lurks, play twelve-string guitar in the grand driving blues tradition to propel his Winding Track, and sing of hugging his baby’s deserted pillow so that you really feel his loss. If you’re already familiar with Whellans, you’ll know to expect a fired up and ready one man blues band explosion. But if this is your introduction, prepare to hear a talent who’s not only his own man as a singer, guitarist and ace blues harpist, he’s his own rhythm section, too" (Rob Adams).

MIKE WHELLANS plays 'good time' blues and doesn't believe in doing things by halves. A Whellans gig is straight from the hip energy so you've got a great entertainment in prospect with the most dynamic one-man blues band any side of the Forth delta.

Based in the UK and 'self-contained' with his own PA and transport, he can play an enormous range and style of concerts pretty much anywhere in Britain & is also available for European dates
