Special Guest: Lightnin' Strikes Again
Shoofly is very happy to welcome back our good friend Lightnin' Wells. One critic wrote of Lightnin': "A veritable bottomless pit of songs and techniques, Wells should be declared a state resource, placed on the endangered species list, and given his own habitat to practice his craft."
Mike Lightnin' Wells was raised in eastern North Carolina and developed an early interest in traditional forms of folk music during the 1960s folk revival. He began performing publicly while a student at UNC-Chapel Hill during the early 1970s. Lightnin' has performed widely for blues societies, arts councils, and in nationally recognized folk and blues festivals and concert programs throughout the US and Europe. In 1995, his first solo blues recording, Bull Frog Blues, was released on the New Moon label.
