Earlier this year, Vermont singer-songwriter Anais Mitchell released her latest album, “Young Man in America,” her fourth solo CD and first on her own Wilderland Records label.
Mitchell, who is currently living in Brooklyn, is back in the state for a Barnstorming Tour taking place this week in Bristol, Bellows Falls, Craftsbury and Burlington. She joined us in the VPR Performance Studio to talk about the tour and her folk opera “Hadestown” and to play a few songs.
Songs performed
“The Wedding Song (02:50)” from “Hadestown”
“Shepherd (08:12)” from “Young Man In America”
