Anais Mitchell Career

Career

Mitchell began writing her first songs in 1998 at the Kerrville Folk Festival, around 1998. In 2004, Hymns for Exiled was released on Chicago's Waterbug Records label. Ani DiFranco, a singer-songwriter who has signed her to the Righteous Babe Records label, was attracted by this album.

Mitchell unveiled a draft of her "folk opera" Hadestown, which she wrote in collaboration with arranger Michael Chorney and director Ben T. Matchstick in 2006. In 2007, a new Hadestown version was staged. The Brightness, her third album, was released on Righteous Babe Records the same year.

Hadestown, Todd Sickafoose's album, received rave reviews in spring 2010. The album is titled "the story of Orpheus and Eurydice set in post-apocalyptic Depression-era America," and it includes guest appearances by Ani DiFranco, Greg Brown, Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, Ben Knox Miller of The Low Anthem, and Tanya Haden.

Mitchell continued to work on a stage version of Hadestown while still writing and recording new material. Wilderland Records' Young Man in America debuted in early 2012. Mitchell opened the North American leg of Bon Iver's fall 2012 tour, which featured two sold-out shows at Radio City Music Hall. Critics often praised the album as "genre-defying" and her "second consecutive masterpiece."

Mitchell completed seven songs from Francis James Child's collection of Child Ballads, compiled by Francis James Child, with fellow musician Jefferson Hamer in late 2012. Gary Paczosa's album was released in February 2013 and received a BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Traditional Song. Mitchell re-recorded a number of her older songs using only guitar and vocals in 2014, which was followed by xoa. This stripped back collection included songs from Hadestown, which were recorded for the first time in Mitchell's own voice, as well as three brand new songs.

In summer 2016, the recently expanded theatrical version of Hadestown opened in New York Theatre Workshop, with Vogue magazine predicting that "Hadestown will be your next musical theatre obsession." The following year, it appeared at The Citadel Theatre, Edmonton, and in April 2018, London's National Theatre announced that it would run for three months in the winter, ahead of the show's Broadway transfer. On April 17, 2019, Hadestown opened on Broadway at the Walter Kerr Theatre.

Mitchell appeared as part of a three-piece "supergroup" named Bonny Light Horseman, which was made up of herself, Eric D. Johnson of Fruit Bats, and guitarist Josh Kaufman. On January 24, 2020, the group's self-titled debut album was released.

Big Red Machine, an American supergroup, released their second studio album in June 2021, How Long Does It Last? "Latter Days," "Phoenix," and "New Auburn" are three of Mitchell's guest vocals on three of its albums: "Latter Days," "Phoenix" and "New Auburn."
