From a 200-year-old farmhouse in rural Vermont, Anaïs Mitchell writes songs that are as intimate as conversations and as rich in detail as short stories. With three full length critically acclaimed albums under her belt, including ‘Hadestown’ which received sensational reviews from all corners, Mitchell is that rare musician who is equally comfortable wielding an acoustic guitar alone onstage, or scripting a vast operatic journey into the underworld.
“Multi-layered, sensationally good and endlessly absorbing…an extraordinary album.” (The Sunday Times, ‘Hadestown‘, CD of the Week *****)
“Mitchell has created something joyful and witty that yields more with every listen” (The Guardian *****)
“Hadestown is nothing short of incredible, whether you extract individual tracks like ‘Wedding Song' or listen to the endearing tale as an artfully rollicking whole. Mitchell has always been good, but 'Hadestown' is her Odyssey” (NME 9/10)
PLEASE NOTE: This event takes place at Pleasance Cabaret Bar, 60 Pleasance, Edinburgh EH8 9TJ
