One of Boston's best-loved guitarists, Monster Mike Welch has been a fixture on the international blues scene for over fifteen years. As leader of the Monster Mike Welch Band, Mike released five acclaimed CDs of mostly original material (These Blues are Mine, Axe to Grind, Catch Me, Adding Insight To Injury, and Cryin' Hey!), and toured North America and Europe. As guitarist in Sugar Ray and the Bluetones, he was a major part of a new CD release (Sugar Ray and the Bluetones Featuring Monster Mike Welch) in March 2003 on Severn Records.

Mike started playing guitar at the age of eight, he dedicated himself to the blues by the age of eleven, and quickly progressed from a regular at local blues jams to a respected member of Boston's professional blues community. By the time he was fourteen, Mike had played with blues greats like Junior Wells, James Cotton, Hubert Sumlin, and Johnny Copeland, as well as stars like the Blues Brothers Band with Dan Aykroyd, who gave Mike his nickname, "Monster Mike." Now, Monster Mike Welch presents "Just Like It Is", a very bluesy and "T. Bone Walker"oriented album with jazz influences, including 11 Mike's songs out of 13, and certainely one of his finest to date.

"Just Like It Is" was recorded the same way than the previous Mike's opus ("Cryin' Hey! ") with musicians Mike is very comfortable with (drums : Mark Teixeira - bass :Brad Hallen - keyboards : Anthony Geraci) and very quickly, in two days, like a live in studio without any overdubs.
