Old jazzy delta blues
Bio / Background
Meet Memphis' best kept secret! After years of entertaining for friends and family Waddy Mitchell was encouraged to go into the studio and record her music for the rest of the world to enjoy. Her interpretation of the old New Orleans and Beale St. sounds will take you back to the late night sessions in the old clubs of yesteryear. Her unique, one of a kind voice, is certain to stand out in the music world. Her love for what she would like to call " anachronistic blues " will surely become a favorite of yours, too. So, sit back, put your feet up, grab a beer and be transported to a simpler time - or better yet, get up and DANCE!
"... the sound of velvet sandpaper,
shadowy fog and summer smoke."

"...Really enjoyed the Waddy CD - mighty fine collection of songs and loved the instrumentation. Her vocals kinda reminded me of Sophie Tucker.

"..."Waddy" Mitchell conjures the spirit of Bessie Smith and Ma Rainey....her timbre and phrasing are spectacular. Consider this either a great change of pace or what you've been waiting 80 years to hear."
BLUES REVUE MAGAZINE - Oct./Nov. 2006

....The mastery of the craftsmen who lay down these grooves is like a richly stained antique chair. Sitting in that chair is Waddy Mitchell, whose earthy-smooth yet sensual voice steers us through a sea of bourbon and smoke. Memphis Blues Society, Feb. 2007 Newsletter
