Not many artists had better years that Mitski. With the release of her celebrated new album Puberty 2 (via Dead Oceans), Mitski only got bigger and bigger, but always on her own terms. On November 21, she played her largest headlining show in New York yet, with a sold out performance at Webster Hall, along with two great openers in Fear Of Men and Weaves, who got things started in style.
After seeing her also sell out Bowery Ballroom earlier in the year, it was even more impressive to see the hold she had over Webster Hall during every living moment of her personal 15-song set. She attracts a young and passionate fanbase, who are devoted to every word and line she delivers, singing it back even more emotional than it was originated. There’s a sincere power to her voice, and it’s hard not to be swept up by it all.
Mitski is only going to garner more accolades as the best of the year lists continue to file in (on this blog included) and it’s safe to say that her star will only rise even more over the years. It’s been a great pleasure to watch her grow as an artists, and here’s to whatever she does next.
