Mitch King
Mitch King is an Australian award-winning singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose dynamic fusion of Southern blues, Australian folk, and modern rock has captivated audiences worldwide.
His career took off in 2016 when he won the Tamworth Country Music Festival Busking Championship, and then two weeks later was voted “Hottest New Act” at St Kilda Festival. With over 80 million streams globally, Mitch’s raw musicianship and evocative storytelling have earned him spots at major festivals like Woodford Folk Festival, Blues on Broadbeach, and Byron Bay Blues Festival and seen him share the stage with icons like America the Band and Supertramp’s Roger Hodgson.
His hit track ‘Coming Back’ from his debut Album A Life Under the Sun was played at the Green Bay Packers’ season opener in 2016, gaining international recognition. Mitch’s second EP, The Open Doors, released in 2021 under the late Michael Gudinski’s Reclusive Records, showcased his continued growth as an artist. The single ‘Oil & Water’, co-written with Mark Lizotte (Diesel), earned them both an Honorary Mention and first place “Rip the Cord” category in the 2022 International Songwriting Competition.
With the release of his latest album Power In Your Hands, Mitch continues to push creative boundaries, setting the stage for his next exciting chapter of his career.
“After seeing Mitch perform live, I knew there was something unique and special about him. The fact that Mitch’s song ‘Coming Back’ was used and embraced by the NFL team The Green Bay Packers was a true testament to his song writing and I was surprised that he wasn’t already signed after that!” – Michael Gudinski
