影響 Influences for Mike started in his mid teens learning all the great Memphis rockabilly and blues, artists like Charlie Rich, Warren Smith, Ray Harris, Edwin Bruce, Junior Parker, Howling Wolf, Billy Lee Riley, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins. The Johnny Burnette Rock'n'Roll trio recordings on Coral were also a huge influence.

As a youngster Mike got involved in the late 70s/early 80s UK/European based rock n' roll/rockabilly revival and upon seeing the Stray Cats live in 1982 his mind was set on what alley he was gonna take, though Mike's purist rockabilly career only lasted 3 years with his first band 'The Rockets' before he started to listen to older musicians record collections where he discovered all the other styles of good rockin' music that developed before and around the mid 50s rock'n'roll era, especially post war rhythm & blues, West Coast, New Orleans and Chicago rockin' blues and piano/sax based boogie woogie artists such as Amos Milburn, Willie Egan, Charles Brown, Floyd Dixon, Little Willie Littlefield (Mike's 80s band Big Town Playboys had the fortune of touring several times with the originator of 'Kansas City' Little Willie which for Mike became a direct big influence), honkers & shouters such as Wynonie Harris, H Bomb Ferguson, Big Joe Turner, Tiny Bradshaw, Roy Brown, Roy Milton, Fats Domino, Larry Williams, Smiley Lewis, Young Jesse, Richard Berry, Jesse Belvin, Little Richard, Percy Mayfield, Ray Charles, saxophonists such as Earl Bostic, Red Prysock, Lee Allen, Maxwell Davis, Noble Watts, Hal Singer, Plas Johnson, blues artists such as Slim Harpo, Muddy Waters, Little Walter, Johnny Watson, earlier artists such as Lonnie Johnson, Big Bill Broonzy and Roosevelt Sykes. Far too many names to mention but you get the idea.

To this day Mike Sanchez remains in love with all of these styles of rockin' music and in concert very easily merges guitar based rockabilly with piano based rhythm & blues. "Its all one big happy bag of..of.. of great music that the world will never forget! It sounds as exciting now as it did 50/60 years ago."

Mike's description of what he currently enjoys listening to: "Any roots music from Blues, 40s & 50s Rhythm & Blues, Rock'n'Roll, Boogie Woogie, Rockabilly, Latin Jazz, Cuban, Big band, Blues shouters, New Orleans, 30s to 50s Piano/sax based Jazz, Swing, Spanish Boleros, 50s & 60s Blue Note, early Jamaican, Ska, Bluebeat, Chess, Sun, Stax, early Soul, Motown, 60s & 70s funk, many things I enjoy but I always seem to head back to wild vocal/piano pumping/sax honkin/guitar blasting real rockin music from 50/60 years ago that swings like a bulls balls!".

   關於 Mike Sanchez


MIKE SANCHEZ (Vocals/piano/guitar) -
British singer, pianist and guitarist Mike Sanchez is one of the most exciting and charismatic performers of Rhythm & Blues and Rock 'n' Roll in the world today. His indelible image as a frenetic front man, pumping powerful boogie-woogie from the piano in a soaking red suit, has won him fans from all over the world and attracted a following from many famous rock and blues legends who have lined up to work with him.

Mike recently enjoyed four years as a full-time member of Bill Wyman's Rhythm Kings, fronting the band since 2001 alongside Georgie Fame, Beverly Skeete, Albert Lee, Andy Fairweather-Low and Eddie Floyd on their annual world tours. The Rhythm Kings released their latest album 'Just for a Thrill' and a fabulous DVD filmed during January 2004 titled 'Let The Good Times Roll', both featuring Mike's extensive roll as a member of the ex-Rolling Stones bassist's touring band.

Mike is currently involved in a number of recording projects and touring line-ups, most notably his 6-piece outfit Mike Sanchez and his Band featuring the outstanding Big Boy Bloater on guitar, Drugstore Cowboy Nick Whitfield on double bass, Mike's long term drummer Mark Morgan, Nick Lunt on baritone sax (Jools Holland's Rhythm & Blues Orchestra) and Martin Winning on tenor sax (Van Morrison). This band's performances continuously receive fabulous reviews throughout the blues and rockin' scenes across the UK and Europe.

Mike's collaboration with top Swedish bluesmen Knock-Out Greg & Blue Weather, creating the hot rockin' album 'Women & Cadillacs' in 2003 has finally seen a follow up album in 2009 titled 'Babes & Buicks', both albums released on Mike's own UK label and on-line store, Doopin Music at www.doopin.com.



In 2003, Mike released a debut 2-hour DVD titled 'Red Hot …Live!' featuring live shows of his own 4 and 7-piece band and The Mike Sanchez Rhythm & Blues Revue, a Johnny Otis 1950s style show starring doo-wop vocal trio The Extraordinaires and Imelda May.

Mike Sanchez was born Jesus Miguel Sanchez in London's East End to Spanish parents Jesus and Manola on the 17th of February 1964. At the age of eleven, his family moved to Worcestershire in the West Midlands where Mike took up the piano, developing a strong love for 1950s' American roots music through his high school years. As a teenager he taught himself guitar and formed The Rockets, a rockabilly trio.

Shortly after, Mike was introduced to former Chicken Shack, Savoy Brown and Steve Gibbons' multi-instrumentalist Andy Silvester by Led Zeppelin's Robert Plant, which led to the founding of the Big Town Playboys in 1984, specialising in authentic post-war Rhythm & Blues. Procol Harum pianist Gary Brooker became an early fan and introduced Mike to his friends Eric Clapton and Amen Corner's Andy Fairweather-Low. The latter signed up as guitarist with the Big Town Playboys for two years in the 1990s. Fleetwood Mac's Mick Fleetwood is another good friend who regularly involves Mike in his plans wherever possible.

Mike recorded a number of albums including the classic rockabilly album 'Crazy Legs' with guitar-great Jeff Beck in 1993. The Big Town Playboys had various stints opening for Eric Clapton at London's Royal Albert Hall and appeared at many European music festivals, backing bluesmen like Lowell Fulson, Don & Dewey, Joe Hughes, Jimmy Nelson, Carey Bell and the great Little Willie Littlefield. Mike has also many times over the years been involved movie soundtrack producing and recording, most recently for the movie 'I'll Be There' (2003) starring Charlotte Church and Craig Ferguson. The well-established magazine Blues in Britain voted Mike 'UK Keyboard Player of the Year' for four consecutive years (2000-2004).

Mike's main aim has always been to make every live show his best yet as he continuously enjoys growing acclaim and admiration for his electrifying stage performances from new and old fans of all age groups across the world.
