Biography

-2015-

Mitch Woods has been the good-rockin’ host of the after hours Piano Bar on the Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise for twelve years now. Early on, after a particularly inspiring all-night session, a hand-painted sign appeared declaring “Mitch Woods’ Club 88”, and so the tradition began. Mitch still hosts the late night sessions in his pajamas, and musicians come to sit in after they finish playing their sets on the main stage. Wonderful and crazy things happen there in the wee, wee hours, sailing the Carribean outside the seven mile limit.
As Mitch puts it: “On this CD I believe I was able to capture the spirit and feeling of the blues in a late night intimate setting around the piano, and bring out the best in some of America’s finest blues musicians on the Legendary Rhythm & Blues Cruise. It was a joy and an honor to play with my friends – Tommy Castro, Lucky Peterson, Roomful of Blues, Victor Wainwright, Coco Montoya, Billy Branch, Popa Chubby, Dwayne Dopsie, Julia Magness and more. It is my pleasure to share it with you on ‘Jammin’ On The High Cs’. So sit back, pour yourself a tall one, turn down the lights and let’s go Bluesin’™.“
