Mitch Woods (born in Brooklyn, NYC on April 3, 1951) is an American modern day boogie-woogie, jump blues and jazz pianist and singer. Since the early 1980s he has been touring and recording with his band, Mitch Woods & His Rocket 88's. Woods calls his music, "rock-a-boogie," and with his backing band has retrospectively provided a 1940s and 1950s jump blues style.
Woods began playing classical piano at eleven, but his real initiation into blues and boogie piano had already been assured at age eight. Read more on Last.fm
