BLUESMAN MIKE FRANCIS Live

Over 40 years ago Mike began touring Europe with a band that was to later provide a prominent member of Bad Company. Having worked with a number of Soul, Blues & and Rock legends including the late Greg Lake, he recently teamed up with lifelong friend, Tina Turner and original Tears for Fears guitarist Neil Taylor to record a ‘New Era Blues’ project with the intention of introducing the genre to a whole new generation of followers.
A naturally engaging performer and favourite on European Festival and Blues Cruise circuits, Mike recently acted opposite film and drama icon Emilia Fox. A former finalist himself, in 2016 he took up a role as UK events coordinator for the European Blues Awards and helps to organise a number of national events and activities including the Manchester Blues Festival.
