Mitski debuted new songs and aired rarities at an intimate show in Nashville last week – check out footage below.
Recently, the musician announced a 2026 tour of “global performances”, and unveiled the second single from her new album, called ‘I’ll Change For You’.
Last month, the singer started to drop hints that new material was on the way, the likely follow-up to her 2023 album ‘The Land Is Inhospitable And So Are We‘.
She wiped her Instagram page clean and shared a cryptic link inviting fans to call a new phone line, before later announcing a new album, ‘Nothing’s About to Happen to Me’, with the lead single ‘Where’s My Phone’.
Now, last Sunday (February 8), Mitski performed a pop-up show in Nashville at the intimate 600-capacity Basement East at which the musician debited several new songs from the new album, including ‘Where’s My Phone?’, ‘I’ll Change For You’ and the unreleased new track, ‘If I Leave’.
The also included some fan favourites and rarities including ‘A Horse Named Cold Air’, ‘Circle’ – performed for the first time live – ‘I Want You’ for the first time since 201 and and ‘Pearl Diver’ for the first time since 2012.
