PARRIS MITCHELL is a 22-time Grammy award viewing musician from Queens, NY. With an unmatched talent for writing songs that make people go, "Oh wow, this actually doesn’t suck!" he has somehow amassed over 50,000 monthly listeners on Spotify—at least half of whom are probably his mom on different accounts.

 

Despite having absolutely no idea how Spotify’s algorithm works, Parris has racked up hundreds of thousands of streams on tracks like Easy Love and Shakespeare Cowboy.

His debut album, The Mixed Emotions Arcade, hit 1 million streams in just four months, which is either wildly impressive or the result of a system glitch.

 

Parris has shared stages with industry giants like Train and Switchfoot, continuing to write songs that blend pop, rock, and whatever mood he’s in that day,  all in an attempt to fill the void left by his seventh-grade crush. Catch him on tour—assuming he can get approved for more PTO from his full-time job.
