Anaïs Mitchell Kicks Off Tour in Creek Bristol, VT Today, 9/27

Fresh off opening dates with Bon Iver and a recent sold-out U.K. tour, Anaïs Mitchell will head home to Vermont for four shows in working barns at far corners of the state. She'll go on to embark on a collection of headlining shows down the east coast starting November 29 in Northampton at The Iron Horse. On tour she will perform songs from her recent album YOUNG MAN IN AMERICA. Please see full tour dates below.

Mitchell released YOUNG MAN IN AMERICA on her own Wilderland Records in February. Meanwhile, Bon Iver chose to cover the track Coming Down on Australia's famed Triple J radio program "Like A Version", with Justin Vernon explaining that he "just worships her music."

YOUNG MAN followed HADESTOWN, a modern retelling of the Orpheus myth set in a Depression-era America and featured Justin Vernon (Bon Iver) as the voice of Orpheus alongside Ani diFranco and Ben Knox Miller (The Low Anthem) among others. The album made numerous 'end of year' lists including The Guardian, Observer and The Times. HADESTOWN has been pressed on vinyl for the first time in conjunction with the upcoming tour and is currently being developed into a theater production.
