Mitch Grainger - Keller Sessions

Overview

Canberra Blues Society proudly presents Mitch Grainger for a special solo show.

Mitch Grainger is a perfect paradox. A white guy from Australia, who infuses the blues & roots genres' traditional stylings' with a confidence, and depth of spirit that has seen him compared to the likes of Robert Johnson by American music critics.

His sound, built on a talented configuration of vocals, harmonica and guitar, has quietly been maturing for over 25 years like a fine single malt whiskey while he’s been performing and recording behind the scenes with some of Australia and the world’s greatest artists; such as Malcolm Young (AC/DC) and Harry Vanda (The Easybeats) to name but two.

Mitch joined the Bondi Cigars at the age of 19, playing guitar & harp with them for two years, before going out on his own forming Papa Lips & Grainger (with his sister Kara Grainger). Then in 2010, Mitch relocated to Los Angeles and ensconced himself in the live music scene of Hollywood.
It was here, when stepping into the light with his 2015 breakout solo acoustic release ‘The Blues’, Mitch Grainger and his high - energy stage show burst onto the blues & roots scene, like a field holler echoing from the deep dark south through a dusty 50’s tube amplifier.
