Blind Billy and the Spectacles

About Me

"Blind" Billy Mitchell is a true bluesman who keeps the music fun and energetic, while still reflecting on his blues roots. Bill has assembled a top notch team of young blues jorneymen from Berklee School of Music to further and deepen the blues tradition, and delivers a kick ass performance every time. So hang on while Blind Billy & the Spectacles takes you on journey of boogie woogie harmonica driven butt shakin blues. The band is presently working on Classic Rock tunes due to the market place.
