TALENT PROFILE

Big Dog Mercer

This is THE BAND for all those that have ever said “I don’t care for Blues music”.

Seeing “Big Dog” Mercer once is enough to convert them into instant fans of his style of Chicago Blues & Rock. Having fun on stage and engaging the audience with humorous banter and having them participate in sing-alongs is what they do. Nothing quite like hearing a large crowd of people barking and howling like dogs… The 6’10”, 300 lb. man owns every stage he walks on and his personality is as large as his stature.

Performing close to 200 shows every year, he and his talented band (and horn section) have captured the attention of fans and critics alike across the Midwest and abroad. Mercer is a two time inductee as a “Great Blues Artist” into the Blues Hall of Fame first in 2013 for Joliet, IL Blues Hall of Fame and then in 2016 for Chicago, IL Blues Hall of Fame. As for his original music, Mercer’s ability to combine emotional lyrics by retelling stories of life and his aggressive guitar style (*attention slide guitar fans) makes him an artist unlike any other.
