Singer-songwriter Mitski has unveiled a new music video for her latest track ‘Star’ which featured on her album ‘The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We’. Directed by Maegan Houang who worked with Mitski on the videos for ‘Happy’, ‘The Only Heartbreaker’ and ‘Stay Soft’, the video encapsulates the “impressionistic circularity” of life that we all experience. Houang described our lives as oscillating between light and dark, repeating “itself in an endless cycle where nothing is permanent. The best moments are fleeting, but so are the bad.”
Mitski will be touring the UK in April 2024 starting with a show in Edinburgh before traveling to Manchester, Dublin, Wolverhampton, and finally London. The UK shows will be followed by a series of European gigs starting in Brussels and ending in Zurich. The artist has also been announced as the final headliner for All Points East in 2024 alongside acts such as Beabadoobee, TV Girl, Ethel Cain, Arlo Parks, Sir Chloe, Wasia Project, Infinity Song, Wisp, Towa Bird, Strawberry Guy and bby.
Mitski’s seventh album, ‘The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We’, was released last year in September and received a four-star review from NME, who described the artists’ choices and the album arrangements as “some of Mitski’s most complex and richest, yet they translate to such simplicity, a statement that there is pain and love, and that’s it. Those are the ingredients with which we make everything.” Mitski performed in London at the Union Chapel last October and received a glowing five-star review from NME.
Tickets for Mitski’s UK and European tour are available for purchase through Ticketmaster.
