Mitch McVicker is a unique and talented recording artist and singer/songwriter. His music is a mixture of folk and Christian pop. Mitch was a traveling band member and best friend of Rich Mullins - a popular Christian music artist, thinker, and missionary. They were traveling together in the fall of 1997 when they lost control of their jeep and had a tragic accident that took the life of Rich and badly wounded Mitch, who was in the hospital for several months. His testimony includes not only his loss and recovery but his unswerving passion to follow Jesus and point to Him as much as possible.
I don't know that any artist of any genre has traveled as much as Mitch does. I've personally met him several times now and he's genuine as well as extremely gifted. I hope if you don't know his music you will give it a listen and purchase a few of his records for Christmas gifts!
