Anais Mitchell
Caffe Lena Saratoga Springs, NY
From her birthplace on a Vermont sheep farm to Beirut cafs, Cairo apartments and Austin recording studios, Anas Mitchell has been around. Her listeners hear the Virginia countryside, bathe in New Mexico moonlight, and hear the world whizzing by from inside a hobo's train car. This remarkable young artist, who set out to do no more than indulge her love of language and truth, was catapulted into the national folk spotlight after capturing the prestigious Kerrville New Folk Award and being signed to Righteous Babe Records. Anais is looking forward the imminent release, on the Righteous Babe label, of an album of songs from her âfolk operaâ Hadestown, based on the Orpheus myth but set in a vaguely futuristic Depression Era-esque company town.
Boston singer-songwriter Anne Heaton will open the show with her organic vocals, pop melodies and piano-led arrangements. The music is lush and whimsical, urging the listener to both take risks and take comfort.
Note: Doors open a 1/2 hour before showtime. Please do not arrive any earlier. We need private time for set-up and soundcheck.
