About Me |
|
| www.prostatecancerfoundation.org Dedicated... talented... unbelievable... smooth.....are just a few words that have been used to describe this Award Winning Mobile, Alabama born and based Singer-Songwriter. The Mobile Press called Donnie, "One of Mobile's most accomplished songwriters" and he was voted 2nd place for Best Songwriter in Mobile by Laigiappe Mobile in 2005. Donnie Mills has played guitar and sang since the age of nine, and has allowed time to perfect his style of guitar playing and enrich his smooth vocals into what is heard now from Nashville, Tennessee and Austin, Texas to the beautiful shores of the Gulf of Mexico. Listeners old and new are captivated by the way that Donnie takes a song and makes it his own with heartfelt delivery and with the sheer joy of being able to live his dreams through the music he plays. From Country and Classic Rock & Roll cover tunes to his own original songs, Donnie feels every song that he sings and transmits those feelings to all that listen and that is what keeps people coming back for more of this "passionate Singer-Songwriter."Having fourteen national releases to his credit, placing 2nd the the Gulf Coast Idol competition, and being a two time winner and three time judge for the Hank Williams Songwriting Contest held in Georgianna AL (which Donnie produced and oversaw in 2005), and placing 5th in the Austin Songwriters Contest in 2006 and 3rd in the 2006 contest, Donnie is doing what Country Music Legend Larry Cordle (CMA Song of the Year with "Murder On Music Row", and "Mama Don"t Forget To Pray For Me"-recorded by Diamond Rio) told him that he was meant to be doing.Donnie has been a past President and Coordinator of the Mobile Songwriters Association, a present member of the Austin Songwriters Group of TEXAS and a regular at the Frank Brown International Songwriters Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama ,the Flat Rock Music Festival held in Flat Rock, North Carolina, the Alabama Pecan Festival in Tillmans Corner AL, the Mississippi Pecan Festival, as well as Bayfest, the Mobile Alabama Music Festival. He has toured the Southeast from Austin TX to Flat Rock, NC singing at House Concerts, Festivals and with national acts such as Robert MeEntee, FREEBO & Jim Photoglo, Merle Haggards Band, as well as working with Songwriters Buzz Cason, Steve Dorff, Barbara Cloyd, and many others.
