Michael van Merwyk has already made a name for himself in the European music scene, playing countless concerts and sessions across Europe. Along the way, he's won several awards, including being the first European act to compete in the 2013 International Blues Challenge in Memphis, where he finished second. But at the core, his performances in cafes, pubs, at blues festivals, and at private parties are always about the music and the people.

"His new release 'Blue River Rising' has everything done right, exquisitely tasteful, well-crafted songs, with hot, superb instrumentation. All that in a generous set of songs, mostly written by van Merwyk. His harmonica partner Gerd Gorke plays along sensitively and elegantly, adding just the right touch to van Merwyk's powerful and gritty merrymaking."
