Dean Mitchell – “Pieces”

Grown up in the Bay Area and now Los Angeles-based, this rising singer and songwriter is a musical chameleon. With a style influenced by funk and R&B of the 70s and 80s, 90s grunge and 00s pop, she feels most at home in a genre-less soundscape. Drawing inspiration from artists like Alanis Morrisette, Green Day and Christina Aguilera, she released her debut single “Hold Me Down” earlier this year.

Focusing on the anxieties that seem to be synonymous with being twenty-something, her new single reminds others that they are not alone. Enveloping the wistful lyrics in uplifting 90s-influenced pop-rock vibes, the song captures the attention from the very first bass pluck. Edgy guitars, potent beat and her flirtatious vocals turn these infectious 2 minutes into something extraordinary.
