Self-taught from his impressive collection of blues vinyl, Mikey Jr. was a full time musician before he even graduated high-school. By the time he was in his early twenties, seasoned players were taking notice.

Now, he has a new album, Travelin’ South, and if you didn’t know Mikey before, you will now!  Mikey comes by to talk about his career and new album.
