The answer unfolds as this article proceeds.
The Voice: Who Are D Smooth Parents?
The Voice competitor D Smooth is the son of Anthony Mitchell and Michelle Mitchell. He was born to his folks as David Mitchell.
Growing up in the close-knit rural community of Mulga, just north of Birmingham, D.Smooth began singing in a church choir, just like many other Southerners do. According to NBC shared, “D.Smooth grew up in the rural countryside and his entire extended family all lived on the same street. He feels blessed that his family was close by to keep him grounded.”
“It was one way in, one way out, with two churches in the neighborhood,” D.Smooth said. D. Smooth used to play in a jazz band as a child. He was pushing himself as a multi-sport student-athlete through high school and college, though, at the same time.
Talking about D Smooth, he is 25 years old. David performed Ed Sheeran’s Perfect on his audition season 23. “It was very strategic with me picking that song,” D.Smooth said. “I knew the coaches knew it.” As he started, D.Smooth’s nerves were undoubtedly a little raw. He was singing behind the celebrity judges Chance the Rapper, Niall Horan, Blake Shelton, and Kelly Clarkson as well. That is how “The Voice” operates. The coaches must be sufficiently awed by you for them to want to turn around.
What made D Smooth choose the Grammy-winning Texas singer/songwriter in addition to purchasing the great Team Kelly jacket, which he claimed to have been wearing constantly? “Kelly, she captures me,” D.Smooth said. “I love Kelly, and I’m a big fan of her, and what she stands for in the music realm. She’s just an A-list person. An A-list vocalist. Country and Southern roots, just like me.”
D Smooth arrived in Montgomery in 2016 while attending Faulkner University. “I don’t have no family here, but we have ties in Montgomery,” D.Smooth said. “My mom went to Alabama State, and I have a plethora of family that went to Alabama State.”
He started performing music gigs at 18. It wasn’t a completely “smooth” process for him, he admits. After a year-and-a-half at Faulkner, D.Smooth went back to Birmingham for a while to work. But Montgomery called him home in 2019.
D Smooth nearly found himself in the national limelight in 2021. He had been chosen to participate in “The Voice’s” blind auditions for that season. “That was my first time even getting on a plane, to be honest, let alone going to California,” he said.
“I’m grateful I got to experience everything that came with it. I was on the last day to go, and the teams got filled before it was my turn, so I didn’t get to audition.”
“Music became my wife then,” D.Smooth said. “At first it was like my girlfriend, or like my side piece. But it became my wife, and I treat her right now.”
