meetings-- not just for corporate america.

i have filled my old-school planner with back-to-back meetings for the last six months. the scratches and overdubbed ink consists of meetings with engineers, video production, photographers, duplication manufacturers, graphic designers, the occasional friends--if i am lucky-- job prospects, and all the good stuff in between.

today i am meeting with the amazing Ross Bruggink to finalize the album artwork! Check out the designs he has come up with by clicking here.

yours truly,

and 10 minutes later...

so here it goes. i am not interesting.

i play music. i am addicted to abc.go.com. i hate social media. i am addicted to social media. and i write music.

i have been working on my new CD, Kelly Jo Mitchell, Smile, for about a year. i started working last year after graduation with a student at McNally Smith College of Music. It was so much fun working in the studio with fancy gear, grand pianos, foam-padded walls and sign-in desks run by students.

it started as a piano/vocals thing, and spiraled into an 11-track piano-driven CD featuring kris shoen on drums, sam taphouse on stand-up bass, josh johnson on electric bass, my sister, clare and i on back-up vocals and von ahlene on guitar.

i met some amazing people along the way, and got back in touch with a few others.

learned a lot, and still learning,

kelly jo


check out my Web site for more info and check back in tomorrow for more updates directly from me, kjo mitch :)

so i have a twitter account but no tweets for me.

hi virtual reality and all you fellow bloggers and music lovers-

i am going to keep this short and sweet as i refuse to tweet! i figure a blog is just as good as a twitter account to get out important information. and quite frankly, it is less narcissistic and obnoxious. so, if you want to follow me and my musical endeavors/daily routine, here i am :)

enjoy,

kelly jo
