Elizabeth Mitchell, a Smithsonian Folkways Recordings artist, has been recording and performing music for children and families since 1998. At the suggestion of friend Dan Zanes, Elizabeth was the first new children's music artist signed to Smithsonian Folkways in the 21st century. Her newest release, "Sunny Day" features collaborations with Levon and Amy Helm, Dan Zanes, Jon Langford of the Mekons, and the Children of Agape Choir. Elizabeth has also collaborated with Ziggy Marley, singing the duet with him "Wings of an Eagle" on Ziggy's 2009 release "Family Time." She appeared, along with her husband Daniel and daughter Storey, performing their original song "Blue Clouds" in the 2010 HBO Family documentary "A Family is a Family is a Family."
Elizabeth records and performs with her husband Daniel Littleton and nine year old daughter Storey Littleton. They live in the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York.
