Mitchell John's musical journey continues as he reflects on where he has been...some of what he has done...and, more importantly, what he discovered through it all. When he was young musical notes first found their way to him via Elvis Presley. He wanted to be like "Elvis"...and he literally saw this man as the "King". He spent his youth listening to and trying to emulate the sound of Elvis through his own music. Nothing could have prepared him for the tangled web that this imaginary world of success would bring. Years passed like waves lapping up on the shore of his life, a melody of sorts that he wanted to capture for himself. Maybe it was the storm that hit him full force and took him down...almost burying him in the sand of regrets and shame. No one knows for sure when Mitchell began to see the light that suddenly surrounded him with the warmth of love and forgiveness. The presence of Jesus soothed his troubled heart...and a new melody emerged from within...a "Sweet Spirit"...saved him. Visions of Elvis's entourage and screaming fans faded away, momentarily leaving a lonely man with only a guitar, who started to sing. One by one, mutual hearts and minds, gathered to create a new sound akin to Jesus and all of them. Mitchell John's musical journey will take you on a trip through his life of self-indulgence, his awakening, and his realization that "music" has been his lifeline. Mitchell John has been recording and touring now for 30 years recording his first on 18 albums in 1994. His current album Stillwaters releases June 4 along with the book To The Brokenhearted. See less
