THE STORY SO FAR
Ethan Mitchell is a folk musician who calls Ottawa his home. He writes silly little songs to help get things off his chest, and he loves sharing his music with friends, family,
and the occasional stranger. He writes about cowboys, Canada, country folk, city folk, lonesome folk, and friendly folk. He gave up the cello to sing and play guitar, setting stories to
song and every now and again yodelaying a couple hee-hoos.
His songs range from tender love songs, toe tapping shuffles, and Country crooner power ballads, sung in a rich, timeless baritone punctuated by flashy bluegrass runs and intricate fingerpicking guitar.
ValleyReels
Valley Reels is a project to document and celebrate folk music in Ottawa and beyond. Ethan and his partners Dalton Carew and Charlotte Leduc release monthly videos of their friends and colleagues in the Canadian folk scene playing their songs and sharing their tales.
Teaching
In addition to his work as a performer and songwriter, Ethan is a passionate and charismatic teacher. He offers lessons in cello, guitar, piano, music theory, and songwriting in the heart of downtown Ottawa. With over a decade of experience, he's taught students of all levels and ages. He leverages technical and theoretical knowledge gained from his classical training with a love of the creativity and freedom of the folk tradition to make music accessible and fun.
