Brent Mitchell’s music is steeped in his own experiences, even when it is not autobiographical. He grew up a longhaired kid in a Texas town in the Vietnam War years. He lived in his poet father’s bachelor pad, and accompanied him most every night from a very young age to jazz clubs, honky tonk dance halls and blues joints. He’s played every kind of music venue from house concerts to dance halls. This year his song, Hand of God, as sung by Austin’s Bonnie Whitmore got a grammy listing. He has never recorded the song himself, but has recorded three CDs full of great songs; Reciting Whitman to the Cows, Fallen Angel Palace, and a new CD that is self titled. He has shared the stage with many well known Texas Americana artists such as Robert Earl Keen, Ray Wylie Hubbard, and Slaid Cleeves, as well as a number of mainstream acts.
