Anaïs (uh-nay-is) Mitchell

Indie/Folk




Anaïs (uh-nay-is) Mitchell, is an singer-songwriter from Vermont, USA, who attended Middlebury College. Anaïs’ voice is akin to Cyndi Lauper’s & song-writing / delivery’s inspired by the confessional styling of artists such as Ani DiFranco.

A rare musician who is equally comfortable wielding an acoustic guitar alone onstage, sharing a disc’s worth of alt-country duets, or scripting a vast operatic journey into the underworld. She’s a fearless explorer, and her world just keeps getting larger.

"Anaïs sings of love among the ruins, coming of age to find yourself an outsider looking for the place you belong, finding other strangers along the way. Details … are offered like clues or keys to the reality all of us sense is imminent and eternal beneath the surfaces of things."
— Hugh Blumenfeld, Sing Out!

She plays Belfasts Open House Festival on 2nd June 2011. Tickets £12 incl. booking fees.
