November 9, 2018 For Immediate Release Watch Mitski’s “Washing Machine Heart” Video HERE ​ On Tour Now In Support of Be the Cowboy ​ “Mitski’s composure means that even the smallest ripple of expressiveness in her voice can hit like an earthquake.” - New York Times Magazine ​ "[Be the Cowboy,] the fifth album from the singular songwriter is her greatest to date. From the ​ ​ music to her emotions, Mitski has the power to make the complex seem dazzlingly clear." -- Pitchfork, Best New Music ​ ​ "Gorgeous, orchestral ballads hold court with thumping Britpop, scabrous grunge, and synthpop; the anchor is Mitski’s lilting voice and devastating way with words." -- Vulture, Best Albums of 2018 So Far ​ ​ “Mitski Is The 21st Century’s Poet Laureate of Young Adulthood.” — NPR Music ​ “A release that will almost certainly be on every critic's best-of-2018 list come December.” -- USA Today In the midst of a completely sold out North American tour in support of Be the Cowboy, Mitski ​ ​ ​ shares a gorgeous video for “Washing Machine Heart,” created with previous collaborators -- ​ ​ director Zia Anger (“Your Best American Girl” and “Geyser”) and cinematographer Mia Cioffi ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Henry (“Geyser”) -- and premiered last week via TIDAL. The video takes stylistic cues from ​ older noir films, reflecting the longingful lyrics and pleading desire of the song. Choreographed by Monica Mirabel, who also choreographed the Be the Cowboy tour, Mitski exerts a powerful ​ ​ confidence that aptly describes the way she captures emotion— frankly, beautifully, and willingly. Mitski continues on her entirely sold out North American tour in support of Be the Cowboy, ​ ​ released this past August on Dead Oceans. Her 2018 run concludes with four sold out shows at ​ ​ Brooklyn Steel.

It is at once disorienting and mesmerizing, an effect enhanced by a serene tone of voice at odds with the tumult of her lyrics.” - Paste ​ "[The 'Washing Machine Heart' video] is a haunting accompaniment to Mitski’s lilting run-on vocals, punctuated by catchy, bleepy synths in one of the stunning album’s most infectious earworms." -- Consequence of Sound ​ Stream/Purchase Be the Cowboy – https://mitski.ffm.to/bethecowboy Watch “Nobody” Video – https://youtu.be/qooWnw5rEcI Watch “Geyser” Video – https://youtu.be/3zdFZJf-B90 Mitski Tour Dates: Thu.
