Lineup and details for Anais Mitchell Presents Hadestown on Tuesday 25th January 2011
Anais Mitchell performs her acclaimed album, 'Hadestown' - a folk opera and post-apocalyptic song cycle of the classic Greek Myth.
For only the second performances of 'Hadestown' on this side of the Atlantic, Mitchell has assembled a star cast from the UK's own folk scene, with the legendary Martin Carthy and Jim Moray both answering personal requests to be involved. The London debut in the stunning confines of Islington's Union Chapel comes just a few days after Hadestown is performed at Glasgow's prestigious Celtic Connections Festival.
Hadestown is the most recent of Mitchell's three critically acclaimed albums released on Ani DiFranco's Righteous Babe imprint. Recorded with a dream-team lineup including, among others, Ani DiFranco, Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), Ben Knox Miller (The Low Anthem), Greg Brown, and Mitchell herself, Hadestown caught the attention of critics and music fans across the world, receiving five star reviews and raves from some of the most esteemed publications around.
“Multi-layered, sensationally good and endlessly absorbing... an extraordinary album.” - SUNDAY TIMES, CD of the Week *****

“Nothing short of awe-inspiring” - DROWNED IN SOUND 10/10
“Hadestown is nothing short of incredible... Mitchell has always been good, but “Hadestown” is her Odyssey” - NME 9/10
