Sherrell Mitchell Featured In #MusicLov3rz Magazine August & October Editions!
Some of “Rell’s,” artistic influences are many of the best-loved voices in modern praise: Kirk Franklin, Fred Hammond, John P. Kee, Hezakiah Walker, Donnie McClurkin, Take 6, Israel Houghton, Ben Tankard, Neal Jones, Grady Austin, and Cora Jackson. Informed by the styles of these contemporary favorites, Mitchell’s own sound is founded on the American gospel choir tradition, but dressed up with 21st century production values and plenty of flair.
Asked to describe the overall meaning of “Hear O’ Israel,” Sherrell writes, “This particular song shares a 2-part message: 1). that God is our All, and 2). a refocus/recommittal to our walk with Him as we give Him our all.”
Sherrell began music as a church percussionist in his youth, but learned to play the piano with training and mentorship by teachers such as Vivian Perryman, Darryl Hawk, Kay Classy and Phil Curry. He continues today to humble serve the Pacific Northwest Christian community with his love for the Lord and his musical gifts.
His 2016 albums, “The JLM Project” and “The Mass Of New Vision” continue to gain popularity, as does his 2019 single release, “Salt Of The Earth.” which is also featured in the October edition of #MusicLov3rz Magazine & available on Amazon | iTunes | Google Play | Spotify
The Song “Salt Of The Earth” was written as a tribute my Grandfather (Mr. Wille Mitchell of Alexandria, LA.)…The Patriarch of our family. Daddee…as we so lovingly called him, answered God’s call to come home in July of 2018. He lived to be 103 and he was truly The Salt Of The Earth & a BIG LIGHT in the world (at least to The Mitchell Family anyway). His favorite passage in the Bible came from Matt. 5:13-16 You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
“All things are possible with God, and I’m truly grateful for the beautiful gift of music that He’s given me. Spreading the Gospel through musical expression, one song at a time for an Audience of One, as the world listens on.”
