THPS Branch Meeting RoomMichael Mitchell Quartet
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Michael Mitchell has been behind the drums since the age of 8. Michael began studying with NYC session-drummers Mike Mechem and Geoff Clapp, and with their help, started playing professionally at the age of 13, in and around the New York City area. After earning a Bachelor's degree in performance from the Manhattan School of Music, a transplant to Oakland afforded Michael the opportunity to continue learning and teaching, and to build an even stronger bi-coastal musical community of students, educators, and professional players. He now teaches Big Band and Small Ensembles at the College of San Mateo, and has been a Teaching Artist with SFJAZZ since 2016; Michael can be seen and heard regularly around the Bay Area as an accompanist and as a leader.
