In Memoriam | Mike Ledbetter ( 1985 – 2019 )
Today we’ve heard the sad news of the passing of Chicago bluesman Michael Ledbetter…“Mike Ledbetter has had nothing short of a rich and multi-dimensional musical journey thus far. He has become known for his intense vocal depictions and demanding range. Covering all grounds from Blues, Pop, Soul, Gospel, R&B, to even Opera, Ledbetter has built a performance level that is genuine and exciting in all ways….
By the age of 25, Ledbetter had spent the better part of a decade singing on many of Chicago’s operatic stages and was ready to return to his soul music roots. He was quickly discovered by Nick Moss. Spending 7 years under his tutelage,
Mike recorded and toured the world the Nick Moss Band as his mentor’s vocalist and rhythm guitar player.
