Mitchell Dufrene |

This multi-talented award-winning producer, singer-songwriter and musician with nearly half a century of experience is proving that creativity and soul never go out of style.

With youthful looks that bely his true age, Mitchell Dufrene is a producer, singer-songwriter, guitarist, bass player, keyboardist who has been creating songs for forty-seven years. You can imagine the kind of creative repertoire he's amassed in that time. When compared with the relative infancy of most pop artists, it's a wonder that more of them aren't pounding on his door for material, guidance and overall perspective. The truth is, Mitchell has enjoyed this anonymity for the better part of his career. But with the recent success of his debut radio single 'Dancing With A Blind Man', that's about to change. A studio designer and engineer/producer, Mitchell has professionally recorded nearly all of his own material. Still a musician at heart, he plays and sings with three bands KYND, Bentley & The Baby Boomers and Bandana, with musical styles ranging from classic rock & roll, R&B, country, folk and jazz to pop. To Mitchell, his songs are like family. He understands that sometimes there is only one small chord that makes them come alive. Mitchell draws much of his musical inspiration from his personal life experiences and peaceful environment. ‘It’s amazing to me that the whole world gathers around music in every country. You don't need a degree to play good songs. Just keep trying to do it and that works.’ Wise words from someone who has walked the talk. Reporter Lily Clark recently caught up with Mitchell to learn more about this creative force, his passion for music and plans for the future.
