Mitski ended 2018 with four back-to-back, sold-out Brooklyn Steel shows in support of Be the Cowboy, her “most triumphant record to date” (Pitchfork, #1 Album of the Year). Today, she releases a live video of the beloved “Drunk Walk Home” off 2014’s Bury Me At Makeout Creek filmed during one of those special nights. “I asked filmmaker, Derrick Belcham, to film some of the four Brooklyn Steel dates we did at the end of last year’s US tour, mostly to commemorate the first big Be the Cowboy tour, especially since I knew we wouldn’t repeat the same set again after that round of tours,” Mitski comments. “Now that we’ve started to tour a new set this year, I wanted to put this video out as a goodbye to this old set, and a thank you to everyone who came to the shows last year.”
Mitski is currently on tour in support of Be the Cowboy, released last year via Dead Oceans. Be The Cowboy was named the #1 album of the year by New York Magazine/Vulture, Esquire, The Line of Best Fit, Consequence of Sound, FLOOD, and more. The New York Times (Jon Pareles), NPR Music and SPIN placed the album at #2 on their best of 2018 lists, and it landed at #3 on TIME’s list. Others placing it in the top 15 include Entertainment Weekly, Paste, PAPER, NME, The Guardian, The A.V. Club, Stereogum, Rolling Stone, and Billboard.
