Gifted Hands, born Immanuel Mitchell, is an American music Artist and Songwriter, whose music is both clean and inspirational. He has been making music since the young age of 12. While going through waves of depression at age 15, he began writing his own music, which was originally written by his older brother. Music has been his constant outlet, and this purposed in him the desire to inspire anyone who would listen to his music by sharing his life experiences, lessons learned, and his point of view with the world.
In 2014, Gifted Hands graduated from Landstown High school, located in Virginia Beach, VA, where he showcased his musical abilities by performing in talent shows. In 2017, Gifted Hands released his 1st single titled "Work With," followed by another single, "Don't Let Em Stop You". He then went on to release Look Ma, No Hands (an EP) in 2018 and Mr. Nice Guy (a single) in 2019. Gifted Hands began to be more vulnerable in his music and released Tryin' Not To Lose Hope (a single) in 2020.
Out of this vulnerability he released a single "Why Not Start" in 2022 that has touched millions of listeners from all over the world and even went viral on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook. Gifted Hands' most notable achievement is the impact that his single "Why Not Start" is having on the lives of so many people around the world.
In 2023, Gifted Hands released an anthem "How You Make It" and a love song titled "Whats Love." He had the pleasure of performing at the Special Olympics of Virginia's events. He ended the year with a special interview and a collaborative visual performance with Grammy Award Winning Producer, Timbaland.
With the intentions of continuing to positively make his mark, in 2024, Gifted Hands released his first album ever which is titled “Childhood Trauma.” This debut album addresses different things that we all go through and the effects of the traumas that we live with. His message is that it’s time to heal. And from everything we’ve heard from him so far, we can always certainly expect inspiration in the stories he shares with us through his music.
