Mitski has been unveiled as the final headliner for this year's All Points East festival.
The US singer songwriter takes to the stage in Victoria Park on Sunday 18, August, alongside special guests TV Girl, Ethel Cain, and Beebadoobee.
Also on the bill for a huge day of music in East London are Mercury Prize-winning Londoner Arlo Parks, Sir Chloe, Wasia Project, Infinity Song, Wisp, Towa Bird, Strawberry Guy and bby - with more to be announced.
Tickets from £54.95 plus booking fee go on sale at 10am on Friday 12 April for what will be Mitzki's festival headline debut.
She has been variously hailed by critics as “the US’s best young songwriter" and an artist of real complexity, rare courage and wilful experimentalism”.
The show will be her final European performance to promote her acclaimed album, The Land Is Inhospitable and So Are We, which features the hugely successful single ‘My Love Mine All Mine’.
Mitski's first song to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, it has racked up 1 billion streams globally and has been certified gold in the UK.
Mitski recently unveiled her contribution to the Spotify Singles series: a solo cover of ‘Coyote, My Little Brother’, written by Peter Lafarge but popularised by Pete Seeger, and a new studio rendition of The Land’s ‘Buffalo Replaced’.
Joining as special guests, TV Girl are a hypnotic pop band who hail from Los Angeles and are known for their dreamy, lo-fi sound and cleverly crafted lyrics on the likes of ‘Birds Don't Sing’, French Exit, and Who Really Cares.
Ethel Cain is a rising force in the alternative music scene, captivating listeners with her haunting vocals and genre-bending sound that blends indie rock, pop, and electronica in tracks like her breakout single, 2021’s ‘Crush’.
The announcement completes the line up for the ten day music festival which runs in East London from 16 August - 26 August.
Each year, All Points East delivers a line up of world class headliners, curated supporting line ups, and big exclusives. For 2024, Mitski joins previously announced headliners Kaytranada (Friday 16 August), Loyle Carner (Saturday 17 August), LCD Soundsystem (Friday 23 August), APE presents Field Day (Saturday 24 August) and The Postal Service / Death Cab For Cutie (Sunday 25 August).
The event also features a free midweek community festival for Tower Hamlets locals, including outdoor cinema, live music, sports and wellbeing, kids and family activities.
