I am a singer/songwriter/instrumentalist currently living in Rockford IL. For 38 yrs I have performed my music for people in 41 U.S. states, Canada and Mexico. In 2008 I began recording my first collection of works,Devil's Highway. Here I have uploaded 5 original, unedited and slightly mastered tracks from the upcoming CD. I hope you like them.
I grew up in Baltimore MD and have lived many other places since. Due to the nature of the business, when working on the road most of the time, it does give you the luxury of living where you want to. Houston TX, Austin TX, Nashville TN, York PA, Jacksonville FL, Newport KY, Cincinnati OH, Orlando FL, and now my new home in Rockford IL.

This man is that good..... Check him out for sure!!!”

“Catfish is a real crowd favorite at Bobber's Tap, and puts on an excellent show!”
Joe Radford - Bobbers Tap
“Catfish Bernie Meise is truly one of the greatest musical talents in our area, seriously. Excellent.
No, he didn't pay me to say that. But he can buy me a beer some day.”

"This guy plays everything. If he doesn't know the song you requested, he knows at least one song by the original recording artist."
