MIke Mitchell Band
The Mike Mitchell Band brings a high-energy show full of chart-topping bluegrass and fiddle tunes.
​
“Mike Mitchell and his band absolutely shined during our Mountain Fever Records showcases at IBMA. Their performances were dynamic, heartfelt, and full of energy. Mike’s music, delivered with his signature fiddle work and warm, expressive vocals, was an incredible delight — truly one of the highlights of the week.”

MEET THE BAND
JARED HOUSEMAN
The MMB is thrilled that Jared Houseman will be touring with us again this year. We’ve known him and his music since he started gigging, and having him with us for the third year on the road makes it feel like family!
Jared is an adept bassist on both upright and electric. At the age of 9, Jared began gigging in the Bluegrass rich region of Southwest Virginia, becoming a master of the style. His influences soon grew to include Jazz, Funk, Country, and everything in between making for a versatile player both on stage and in the studio.
James Michael Mitchell
Raised in a music family, James has been a player since he could walk and talk. His passion is lead guitar and he is
also a pretty darn good fiddler. We are super excited to welcome James into the bluegrass family, making his dad awfully proud.

​Sydney Christian
Sydney has been a part of the Floyd, VA music scene since she was 9. Starting on piano, with Ms. Jenny at our
own Floyd Music School, she has added vocals and learning the mandolin. We are very happy to add Sydney to our MMB family.
