| "Big Dog" Mercer Marty Mercer, A.K.A., "Big Dog" Mercer, arrived on the Chicago music scene in February of 2000.
Since arriving here he has shared the bill with such acts as The Fabulous Thunderbirds, Ronnie Baker Brooks, & Muddy Waters Jr., just to name a few. He has also donated his time to several charities & fundraising events including the Blues for The Kids' Sake CD for the Will/Grundy county area Big Brothers & Big Sisters Foundation. In April 2007 Mercer won the title of Joliet's "King Of The Blues" in a competition at Guitar Center. He has a wide variety of musical influences that he calls upon to make his own style that has been called many things. "Bluesbilly","Swamp Blues" & "Surfbilly" just to name a few. His soulful vocals that growl, his aggressive slide guitar playing,& personal approach to the instrument make him unlike any other musician around. "Big Dog" Mercer’s band, formed in mid 2000, has been a staple on the local live music scene. The band’s blend of Blues, Rockabilly, Jazz, Roots, & Southern rock, make them a favorite everywhere they play. With soulful vocals, seasoned musicians, & a rock solid groove, they are a band unlike any other. For more information, visit their website: http://www.myspace.com/bigdogmercer
