Still a relative newcomer on the blues and R&B scene, Lauren Mitchell is fast becoming a star. She sold out her summer show at the Side Door and will return on Jan. 25 to celebrate the release of her brand new CD – Please Come Home.
The December issue of Mayhem Magazine features a full story on Lauren, with photographs taken inside her favorite venue – The Palladium Theater. To see all those pictures and read the article follow this link or just google Mayhem Magazine: http://content.yudu.com/Library/A203a6/December2012TampaBay/resources/index.htm?referrerUrl=http%3A%2F%2Ffree.yudu.com%2Fitem%2Fdetails%2F667691%2FDecember-2012-Tampa-Bay-s-Mayhem-Magazine
You can also catch more of Lauren on You Tube – where some video of her knock-out Side Door show is posted. Here’s a link to see and hear Lauren doing “Come To Momma” at the Side Door: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_P_MX3bTyqY
One listen and you’ll hear that Lauren’s sultry, gritty vocals conjure down-and-dirty blues like Koko Taylor, soulful Etta James sounds and even some Funk-based blues a la Susan Tedeschi.
She’s backed by Michael Hensley on Hammond B3, Bob Dielman on guitar, Richard Price on bass, and Steve Howell on drums.
Tickets for Lauren’s show – which will certainly sell-out – are on sale now at www.mypalladium.org or by calling the box office at 727 822-3590.
And check out this great shot from the Palladium lobby.
