“I had the great pleasure of catching Little Mike and The Tornadoes put on a downright ass-kicking show.” — Blues Blast Magazine

“Little Mike positively wails on both the piano and harp.” — AllMusic

This is blues the way it was meant to be heard—authentic and straight from the soul. Experience a high-voltage night of Chicago-style blues with New York attitude as Little Mike & The Tornadoes make their highly anticipated debut at Arts Bonita!

Little Mike & The Tornadoes deliver high-energy Chicago-style blues, led by harmonica virtuoso, pianist, and producer Mike Markowitz. Hailing from Queens, New York, the band is renowned for its authentic, hard-driving sound that pays homage to the great Chicago blues bands of the 1950s.

Throughout their career, Little Mike & The Tornadoes have collaborated with blues legends such as Pinetop Perkins, Hubert Sumlin, Jimmy Rogers, and Bo Diddley. Their contributions to the genre were recognized when their album “Genuine Blues Legends,” featuring Pinetop Perkins and Jimmy Rogers, was a semi-finalist (Top 5) for Best Traditional Blues Release.
