George Mitchell
From the age of seven, George displayed a musical maturity and talent that, by his early twenties, landed him engagements with Diana Ross and jazz legends such as Sonny Stitt, Philly Jo Jones, Richie Cole, Eddie Harris, Jon Hendricks and Kirk Whalum.
When not touring, George pursues his first love of playing jazz piano and Hammond B-3 organ on the local and regional scene. He is highly sought after as a studio musician with credentials on countless Northwest artists' albums. Mitchell lends his musical voice to all jazz styles, R&B, and pop. His versatility has made him the piano and keys player of choice for most Northwest band leaders, and a leading accompanist for guest artists in town for symphony and festival engagements. For the past twenty years, George has taught hundreds of music arts students from around Oregon and Washington advanced jazz methods and interpretation. Students with a command of the piano, music reading and a working knowledge of the classics can study with George to develop their own style and bring to light existing talents. |
