Early lifeMacDonald is from Port Hood, Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island.[1] He grew up in a family of seven siblings.[2] He worked primarily as a carpenter before Idol.[3] He cites his musical influences as including fellow Cape Bretoner Gordie Sampson. Bright Eyes is one of his favourite bands.[4] Canadian IdolOn Canadian Idol in 2008, MacDonald worked with such artists as Anne Murray, Simple Plan, Gavin Rossdale, and Tom Jones.[2] During his run on Idol, he never appeared in the "bottom two" or "bottom three".[5] Music writer Martha Worboy described MacDonald's music as "tender, mostly acoustic renderings."[6] He received accolades in particular for his rendition of Joel Plaskett's "Love This Town", which drew comparisons to Paul Simon from the judges.[7] Nova Scotia Premier Rodney MacDonald, a musician himself before entering politics, said, "The key to his success throughout the contest was that he remained true to his musical roots."[8] Performances
Post-IdolMacDonald toured Canada as part of the Top 3 Tour, with Theo Tams, and Drew Wright.[9][10] As of 2010, he continued to tour occasionally, both in his home province and in other parts of Canada, and he started work on an album.[11] References1. ^{{cite news|author=Keilty, Lindsey|date=August 29, 2008|url=http://www.halifaxnewsnet.ca/Entertainment/2008-08-29/article-988863/Its-just-a-crazy-cool-experience/1|title='It's just a crazy cool experience'|work=The Weekly News|accessdate=January 30, 2011|archivedate=July 26, 2011|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110726182151/http://www.halifaxnewsnet.ca/Entertainment/2008-08-29/article-988863/Its-just-a-crazy-cool-experience/1|deadurl=yes|df=}} {{Canadian Idol}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Macdonald, Mitch}}2. ^1 {{cite news|author=Pottie, Erin|date=August 23, 2008|url=http://www.capebretonpost.com/Entertainment/2008-08-23/article-774254/Welcome-home-Mitch/1 Welcome home Mitch|work=Cape Breton Post|accessdate=December 24, 2017}} 3. ^Brioux, Bill (September 11, 2008).
