Biography: Mike Paes

Raised by a pack of bulldogs in the English seacoast city of Liverpool, Mike first learned about rock and blues in a dingy club known as "The Cavern." The rest as they say is history. Mike went on to pick up the bass, the Cavern's house band achieved a modicum of fame, and his adopted Canine family... well you might have seen them in a little painting commonly known as "Dogs Playing Poker."
