About

Mitch Woods and His Rocket 88s have been the torchbearers of a great American blues musical heritage for three decades. Taking their inspiration from the great jump n’ boogie outfits of the late 40s and early 50s – like the bands of Louis Jordan, Wynonie Harris, and others – they breathe fresh life into the music that gave birth to rock n’ roll, while forging their own brand of music they call “rock-a-boogie.” Featuring Larry Vann on drums, Dave Somers on sax, Michael Warren on bass, and of course Mitch Woods on piano and vocals. Pour yourself a tall one, sit back in your favorite chair and boogie along with Mitch as he tickles the ivories on one of Piedmont Pianos incredible selection of 88s!
