Mitchell
Marcus Mitchell is not only a
rising saxophone artist in smooth jazz, he is also CEO and President of 24th
Music, a division of MHM Entertainment Group - a multi-faceted entertainment
company based out of Maryland. Marcus and
his company, 24th Music, are committed to the company's motto of "Creative
Music with Substance" which is demonstrated in all of his works and the
works of other artists under 24th Music.
Not only does Mitchell's MHM (Marcus Horatio Mitchell) Entertainment
Group serve as the parent company to Maryland-based 24th Music, but it is also
home to Armodeonce Venture, an investment entity that will be involved in
future investment projects, and Three Sheets of Music Publishing.
Marcus Horatio Mitchell was born on
March 24, 1983 in Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri. The dreams of this future millionaire began while he was
attending high school at Crossland High School in Temple Hills, Maryland. While in high school, Marcus received most
of his business knowledge while working as an in-house consultant and producer
for Mathew Knowles Music World. Mathew
Knowles is the father of famous singer/actress/songwriter Beyonce Knowles.
While working closely with Mathew
and the powerful group Destiny's Child, Marcus arranged for Destiny's Child to
perform at President George W. Bush's victory party in 2001. From there, Marcus took all that he learned
from Mathew Knowles and formed 24th Music.
By 2001, Marcus graduated from high
school with a 3.8 GPA and matriculated to Shaw University in Raleigh, North
Carolina, the oldest HBCU in the south, where he studied Journalism. While attending Shaw, Marcus operated 24th
Music and also performed all around Raleigh with the N-Tune Band. His name quickly became well known, making
him one of the most viewed acts in the Triangle area. Marcus quickly made a name for himself and by his senior he was
able to obtain an investment from Frankie Perry of Wachovia Bank to help
jumpstart 24th Music. Marcus has worked with many artists such as Mike
Phillips, Kim Waters, Marcus Johnson, and Destiny's Child just to name a few.
2005 brought more success for young
Marcus. On September 5th, Labor Day
weekend, he performed at the 3rd Annual Jazz Festival at Cooper's Field in
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba where he shared the stage with Paul Taylor, Peter White
and the Rippingtons (featuring Russ Freeman).
He also headlined at the legendary Blues Alley Jazz Club in Washington,
D.C. In addition he headlined at North
Carolina’s renowned Jazz Café. Furthermore,
Mitchell's CD entitled "Jumpin'" is the first release under 24th
Music and is being distributed nationwide.
His second CD release “R&R” is also being released nationwide under
24th Music.
In 2006, Marcus made history by becoming
the youngest independent executive to be on the voting committee for the Grammy
Awards. He also headlined again at
Blues Alley and the Jazz Café.
Moreover, he began working on building a state-of-the-art office complex
that will house a fully functional recording studio and will release more
projects.
At a young age, Marcus H. Mitchell
has achieved so many accomplishments and he continues to be a driving force in
the industry
