American Idol Harp Sighting

Jeneve Rose Mitchell wowed the judges on American Idol.
February 12, 2016

We couldn’t help but notice singer/harpist Jeneve Rose Mitchell featured on this week’s episode of “American Idol.” Although the focus was clearly on Mitchell’s voice and not her laid-back accompaniment, we still have to give her props for putting harp in the spotlight. Plus, she played it standing up, which is “not easy to do,” according to judge Keith Urban. Harry Connick Junior wasn’t a fan of the harp, calling it a “disservice” to the song. Jennifer Lopez found it “beautiful.”
