This South Carolina singer/songwriter has come a long way since the days of sneaking in his guitar to the barracks at The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina. Just before graduation, Mitchell’s mother unexpectedly passed away, drastically altering Mitchell’s plans. Mitchell decided to put his dreams of dental school on hold and explore his new-found passion as a performing musician. Mitchell began playing around the Charleston area as a solo acoustic artist, but eventually built a band with other local musicians. Quickly, 'Southwood' became one of the most sought-after bands in the southeast. After good regional success, Mitchell approached the band about his desires to take their music to the next level... it was evident that Mitchell's dreams were bigger. Mitchell made the move to Nashville a few years back and quickly garnered the attention of some of the industry’s biggest songwriters.
