Mitch hit out at at criticizers of his TV show background in an interview with Classic Rock (magazine) during their UK tour, stating that "There are a lot of people out there who would discredit me as a singer because I've been on a show like that. But it's not something I really think about or care about, because the The Voice is one part of 12 years of me doing music. I don't care."

In June 2017, Mitchel performed high profile shows with the band as special guests with Scorpions (band) in France and at mainstage 2 at Hellfest (French music festival).

He also added that he would be taking a break from performing original music until he finds "the right inspiration to produce and release something personally fulfilling that I believe the world needs to hear".
