Fri, May 22nd, 8-10pm, Concert – Kevin Mitchell - Vancouver Island Tour 2015 - Roots/Folk/ Alt Country
A finger picking style that sounds like the band. A unique rhythm that is highly syncopated and bass heavy. With over 150 original songs and a few select covers his range is diverse and eclectic. With a sound somewhere between Fred Eaglesmith, Mark Knopfler, and Bob Dylan he swings from Blues to Country, Folk to Reggae with ease. "Kevin started the show laying down some funky syncopated rhythms on his acoustic guitar. He kept the energy up for the whole first set. The highlight of the show was when he played his mandolin. Mixing traditional phrases with his original improvisational style, a flurry of notes where projected throughout the room, displaying a mastery of the instrument. His lyrics are evocative and express an innocence that is suited to his vocal style. ”
