Mike ‘Blaque Dynamite’ Mitchell

Blaque Dynamite, a/k/a Mike Mitchell, has given validity to the cliche’ that age is nothing more than a number. He began drumming at age 2…played in his first live recording session at the ripe young age of 7 and had acquired a roster of drum company endorsements by the time he turned 11 years old.

He attended the same Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas, Texas that also fostered the amazing talents of Norah Jones, Erykah Badu and the late great, Roy Hargrove. Being gifted to play all genres, Dynamite has been the recipient of a host of accolades and prestigious awards. He has received 14 DownBeat Music Awards and his impressive performance credits include Grammy award-winning artists Chick Corea, Christian McBride, Erykah Badu, Thundercat, Michael McDonald, Bob Mintzer, Chrisette Michele, Terell Stafford, and the “Legendary” Clark Sisters.

In 2015, the Grammy nominee released his debut album entitled “WiFi” with Dallas-bred band, Rache’. His collaboration with the artistry of Christian Scott, Derrick Hodge, Kamasi Washington, Doobie Powell, Kierra Sheard, Willow Smith, Ruth B., Maurice Brown, and MonoNeon has been the catalyst in the making of the new bandleader. In November of 2017, Blaque Dynamite released his sophomore project, craftily entitled, “Killing Bugs” on Ropeadope Records and just shy of the pandemic, released a new project, “Time Out.”
