In the little town of New Haven, we find the unusual voice of singer-songwriter Anais Mitchell. She’s gathered national attention – a reviewer in Chicago describes her music this way: "Her melodies are like zebra mussels that latch on and stick to your consciousness."
Next week Mitchell is releasing her third album called "The Brightness." Anais Mitchell plays tracks from the album and talks with VPR’s Mitch Wertlieb.
