“It seems impossible for Mitski songs to be both mannered and explosive, but the perfect two-minute wonders that populate her stunning fifth album Be the Cowboy manage to mine ​ ​ the full depth of human despair and disappointment in little more than a few chilly, economic turns of phrase.” – Vulture, #1 Best Album of 2018 ​ ​

“Such heartrending catharsis presented with peerlessly compelling compositions and keen lyricism sublimates the album beyond ‘indie’ and into fine art.” – Consequence of Sound, #1 Best Album of 2018 ​ ​

“[Be the Cowboy] is an album defined by impeccable construction and open defiance of the confessional mode." – NPR Music, #2 in Best Albums of 2018 ​ ​

"Isolation, insecurity, imperfection: on her fifth album, indie rocker Mitski is always striving to fix something, and she expresses those desires keenly in bright rock songs . . . No one else sounds like Mitski, but everyone can relate." – TIME, #3 in Best Albums of 2018 ​ ​

Mitski returns to the road this spring, following an incredible year surrounding the release of ​ her fifth album, Be The Cowboy, released this summer via Dead Oceans. The tour will consist ​ ​ ​ ​ entirely of cities not yet visited in support of Be the Cowboy. Tickets go on sale this Friday, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ December 14 at http://mitski.com/. In addition to a completely sold out North American tour ​ ​ ​ that concluded with four consecutive nights at Brooklyn Steel, Be The Cowboy has been named ​ ​ ​ ​ Vulture, Consequence of Sound, and The Line of Best Fit’s Album of the Year. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​
