Played at edition 2024
As a very young man, Monster Mike Welch stood on the stage in Ospel in 1996. In the meantime, this enormous talent has developed into a whirlwind on the guitar and belongs to the very best in the blues world. He has stood on the stage in Ospel several times during that time, with, among others, Sugar Ray & the Bluestones (2014) and with his sadly departed soulmate Mike Ledbetter (2018).
Now, after challenging times, Mike Welch has decided to focus again on his solo career… And oh, how he does it with skill! His album ‘Nothing but Time’, released in 2023, is a true gem. On this album, he demonstrates that he has also grown immensely as a vocalist.
Ospel, Monster Mike Welch is on the way, and that promises nothing but top-notch blues!
