Mitch Rossell; formally, Mitchell Scott Rossell, released his debut album “Who I Am” on August 25, 2008. Mitch wrote and composed all 10 songs on the album that reflect himself and who he has become in his almost 22 years on this earth. He was born September 23, 1987 in Chattanooga, Tennessee and still resides there today. Mitch’s father, and best friend, introduced music to him at a young age and sparked a promising flame within him that burns brighter today than ever. Tragically, his father was killed in a freak car accident that also killed his grandfather-in-law and his grandmother-in-law nearly 12 years ago when Mitch was only 10 years old. As hard as it was for him to learn and grow, he found faith and accepted Jesus Christ into his heart his sophomore year of high school and was able to appreciate the better things in life. After graduating from high school he declined the opportunity to play golf on the college level and came to the realization that his father had taken his love and passion for music and passed it down to him. Just as his father had taught him to love music, he desired to share his love with the world; so he saved 250 dollars and purchased a Washburn guitar and took his first step on the road to fulfilling his dreams.
