Japanese-American singer-songwriter Mitski has announced her return with the news of her forthcoming 2022 tour. She will begin the first leg of her tour in North America before beginning her second leg, which is international.
Mitski’s North American dates kick off on February 17 where she plays the first show in Asheville, NC. Throughout that leg of the tour, she is scheduled to make stops in cities such as Atlanta, Phoenix, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Pittsburgh, Nashville and more. The final show of the North American dates will be played on March 31 in Nashville, TN.
The second leg of the tour, which completely takes place in Europe, kicks off just a few weeks after the North American leg. Mitski will play the first show in Briston, England on April 22. Throughout Europe, she will stop in cities such as Dublin, Tourcoing, Paris, Amsterdam, Zurich, Berlin and more. Mitski plays her final show on May 19 in Munich, Germany.
Tickets for the upcoming tour are currently set to go on pre-sale on October 7 at 8 a.m.
Mitski has yet to release a new album since her 2018 release Be the Cowboy. However, she just shared a brand new single titled “Working For The Knife” with a music video alongside it.
“It’s about going from being a kid with a dream, to a grown up with a job, and feeling that somewhere along the way you got left behind. It’s being confronted with a world that doesn’t seem to recognize your humanity, and seeing no way out of it,” said Mitski according to Pitchfork.
Earlier this year, Mitski released a track for the horror film The Turning’s soundtrack. Her song “Cop Car” was released in late January, just a few days before the release of the film. In March, she shared another track for a different soundtrack. Her song “The Baddy Man” was a part of the soundtrack for the graphic novel This Is Where We Fall.
