Since July of 1994, the OVER-REACTORS have been shaking
up street festivals, municipal concerts, colleges, nightclubs,
and bars all over Southern California, the Central California
Coast, Nashville, TN, and Louisville, KY. the OVER-REACTORS
were nominated "Best Live Acoustic Band" in
the 2003 Orange County Music Awards, and as of July
2005 had performed more than 1,000 shows.
the OVER-REACTORS are an electro-acoustic power duo
that consist of the wife/husband team of Robin Mitchell
- vocals/guitars, and Tom Mitchell - vocals/bass/guitar/percussion.
Both are lifetime professional musicians with many album
credits for their work as session players and production
specialists. Tom was also awarded a Platinum Record
for his production assistance on Dokken's "Back
For The Attack" album. They have been performing
together since they met in 1986.
Robin and Tom share lead vocal duties, and multi-instrumentalist
Tom frequently switches between bass, guitar, and hand
percussion from one song to the next, so the OVER-REACTORS
have a unique sound that is almost "band-like",
with far more depth and variety than a typical acoustic
duo. And their broad playlist appeals to many different
listeners with widely varying musical preferences. It
is not unusual to see fans of classic rock, modern rock/alternative,
and adult contemporary all together at the same time
in the same place enjoying an OVER-REACTORS performance.
Their regular shows feature unique arrangements of both
classic and current music. Their original songs are
also frequently requested by name at venues where they
are considered "regulars".
They are currently in pre-production for an album,
which will be released by the end of Summer of 2008.
Their yet-to-be titled album is being produced by Tom
Mitchell of the OVER-REACTORS, and will be mastered
in Nashville by mega-platinum producer and long time
friend Michael Wagener (producer for X, Metallica, Janet
Jackson, Ozzy Osbourne, Dokken, Skid Row, and many other
major artists).
