He is most well-known as the lead tenor vocalist for the classic rock band Chicago since 2018, succeeding Peter Cetera, Jason Scheff and Jeff Coffey.[1]
Possessing a four-octave vocal range, Donell has logged more than 10,000 sessions across his career and is one of the most recorded voices in Canadian music history. His credits also include a few small acting roles and performing “Shining Time” with Maren Ord, for the 2000 motion picture Thomas and the Magic Railroad. Donell performed a new rendition of the song for Rainbow Sun Productions’ video presentation commemorating the film’s 20th anniversary, which premiered on YouTube on July 19, 2020.[2] He was also the lead performer and background vocalist for the songs in Super Why! such as the theme song, Super Readers to the Rescue, Hip Hip Hurray and among others.[3]
