Sean Mitchell's album, "Altar Of Freedom", is one of those projects that comes along from a grass-roots independent artist, that genuinely surprises you and leaves you wanting more... Power-packed vocal performances on the timeless classics like "The Star Spangled Banner" that Sean performs for major events around the country, as well as "America The Beautiful", The Battle Hymn Of The Republic" & "God Bless America" leave you stirred about our country's heritage....with plenty left over to appreciate some of the more obscure tunes that have faded over the years, like "When Johnny Comes Marching Home"... The original pieces on this project come from the depth of the heart of the artist and are written in such a way, that it leaves you wondering how patriotism can meet something so gritty and forward and still be considered "patriotic"... From raw band sounds to dramatic scores that move you to the core..."Altar Of Freedom" is excellent and well timed for the climate of the day & times in which we live...patriotism has truly been taken to the next level...
