Mitski upgrades UK and European tour, adds headline London show
Mitski has shared details of a new headline London show set to take place next year and a slew of venue upgrades due to huge demand.
The singer-songwriter returned earlier this month with new single ‘Working For The Knife’, her first new material since her 2018 album ‘Be The Cowboy’. She also announced details of a UK and European tour for 2022.
The UK run, which includes stops in Bristol, Leeds, Glasgow, Manchester and London, will now see see Mitski move to bigger venues in Leeds, Glasgow and Manchester after quickly selling out the original shows.

Speaking about her new track ‘Working For The Knife’, which is produced by longtime collaborator Patrick Hyland, Mitski said it is “about going from being a kid with a dream to a grown-up with a job, and feeling that, somewhere along the way, you got left behind”.
“It’s being confronted with a world that doesn’t seem to recognise your humanity, and seeing no way out of it.”
