DESCRIPTION:SHOWTIMES ARE AT 7:30PM & 9:30PM.\nDoors open at 5pm for dinner. Seating begins at 6pm for “Dinner & a Show”. The second show starts seating at 9pm.\nMake A Reservation Here\n“…a Jazz Drumming Prodigy…he is a powerhouse behind the kit!”\n– The Dallas Observer \n“A musician who acknowledges the pioneers of jazz while challenging the idea of what the genre is and can be.”\n– Okay Player​​​​​​​ \n“Mike Mitchell’s drumming is deadly and deep\, yet inextricably entwined with the album’s intense production.”\n– Modern Drummer​​​​​​​ \n“Mike Mitchell is the definition of drum chops\, and he can go from zero to 60 in the blink of an eye.”\n– Drum Magazine​​​​​​​ \nBlaque 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. \nYoung Dynamite gained his early development and exposure to music in a church setting. At an early age\, he began to create his own music which in turn fueled his relentless passion and respect for the drums. Inevitably\, he had become very interested in the pursuit of expanding his knowledge of music and honing his craft. At twelve\, he embarked upon the study of music theory. At fourteen\, he found himself in the hallways of the renowned Booker T. Washington High School for the Performing and Visual Arts in Dallas\, Texas in 2009. The school also fostered the amazing talents of Norah Jones\, Erykah Badu\, and the late Roy Hargrove. Simultaneously\, Dynamite took full advantage of attending workshops\, master classes\, and clinics at colleges and universities all over the country during the summer breaks between tours. \nBeing 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 Christian McBride\, Erykah Badu\, Thundercat\, Michael McDonald\, Bob Mintzer\, Chrisette Michele\, Kamasi Washington\, and the legendary Clark Sisters.  In 2012\, he was selected to perform on a global stage at the inaugural International Jazz Day Celebration with one of the most influential artist of all time\, the iconic Herbie Hancock. Shortly after\, Dynamite was reigning the drum throne for the living legend\, virtuoso bassist\, composer\, Stanley Clarke. Then\, he graduated high school! (Class of 2013) \nFast forwarding\, the Grammy nominated artist Blaque Dynamite has toured five of the seven continents of the world. In 2015\, he released his debut album entitled “WiFi” with Dallas-bred band\, Raché. His collaborations with artists such as Christian Scott\, Derrick Hodge\, Doobie Powell\, Kierra Sheard\, Willow Smith\, Talib Kweli\, and Jon Bap have been the catalyst in the making of a new band leader. \nOn April 10th\, 2020\, Blaque Dynamite released his third album\, “Time Out” on Dolfin Records\, an independent record label out of Dallas. \nwww.blaquedynamite.com
