Lil' Mike Mitchell - Interview

There are hundreds young drummers and child prodigies in the world today. Just go on Youtube and you'll find about a million videos of adolescent musicians playing odd time grooves with chops for days. But very few of them play with the control and emotional maturity of a seasoned veteran, occasionally you do find one that separates themselves from all the rest. Drummer Connection had the benefit of interviewing one such prodigy as I sat down with none other than Lil' Mike Mitchell.

A humble young man with exceptional talent, Mike has been playing the drums for as long as he can remember. Barely 15 years old, he's already performed at numerous events such as Winter NAMM, Drummer's For Jesus, and has even made several clinic appearances. Currently working on starting a new band and recording project, Lil' Mike takes a moment to talk with us about his soon to be long and successful career as a professional musician.
