Tina Mitchell Wilkins featuring Ron Flynt and Bart de Win
April 24 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Tina Wilkins has become a highly-regarded performer and writer in her beloved home of Texas, where she plays solo, with her husband Walt Wilkins, standards sets with musician & producer, Ron Flynt or when she’s the beautiful, vivacious “chick singer” of the Mystiqueros.
After stops in Los Angeles and Nashville where she was an in-demand session and stage singer, she developed a reputation as a writer with a unique eye for everyday life and has blossomed in her latest Texas Hill Country-based chapter.
Tina has released 6 solo albums as well as a duet record (Be Mine) with her husband, esteemed songwriter Walt Wilkins. One of her more recent projects, Moonflowers, is a standards-infused CD released to critical acclaim in 2016. Wilkins and producer Bart De Win instill new life in standards like “At Last” and “What A Little Moonlight Can Do” and also offer an impressive piano-infused twist on Sting’s “Fields of Gold.” Together with originals that fit right in with their tracklist companions, Moonflowers is a beautiful, smoky-tinged gem in Wilkins’ discography.
Likewise, Morning Glory, her solo release on HWY 29 Records, is a favorite among fans. She wrote half the record, and picked songs from her favorite writers in Texas and Tennessee, along with an inventive, personal take on the U2 classic, “I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For.” The title song, by Jimmy Davis, is ready-to-wear radio heaven. The songs range from intimate solo performances to full-on raves featuring some of Austin’s best musicians.
