“I am knocked out by Ginny’s voice and her most deserving self”
-Lacy J. Dalton
a life in song
Santa Cruz Americana singer-songwriter Ginny Mitchell has toured with a five-piece band and, more recently, solo across the U.S. Her career spans festival stages, Nashville’s Bluebird Cafe, and years bringing music to people in hospitals and care facilities.
Her recordings include A Wild Rose and Just to Hear Your Voice. She also performs with longtime musical partner Patti Maxine in the Honky Tonk Angels. Now at work on a new album, Ginny brings together new songs of her own, a song by her late friend Mary McCaslin, and selected covers.
