UPPER LAKE, Calif. – Locals Mike Wilhelm and Hired Guns welcome their very special guest, fiery blues guitarist Mighty Mike Schermer at the Blue Wing on Monday, Nov. 29.

Schermer is known for his stint with Elvin Bishop's band as well as fronting his own west coast outfit. He has since relocated to Austin, playing with Marcia Ball's band.

When Blue Wing proprietor Bernie Butcher suggested the pairing Wilhelm jumped at the chance to trade licks with Schermer.

Filling out the band will be Jim “Jimmy the Lion” Leonardis on tenor sax, Randy Hare on bass and the the always energetic Scott Slagle on drums. Show time is 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

There is never an admission charge at the Blue Wing Saloon & Café but reservations are recommended if you want an inside table for this very special chance to catch two virtuoso blues players together for the first time.

Call 707-275-2233.
