Mitski is an American singer-songwriter with an Oscar nomination for her song This Is a Life
Mitski, whose full name is Mitski Miyawaki, is an American singer and songwriter known for her lyrics and unique style of indie rock music. She was born in Japan to an American father and a Japanese mother. She had a nomadic childhood, moving to 13 different countries worldwide before settling in New York City for college.
She initially pursued a career in music after completing high school in Turkey, and her earliest song, Bag of Bones, appeared on her first album. While studying film at Hunter College in New York, she decided to switch to music and transferred to SUNY Purchase. She then created her first two albums, LUSH and Retired from Sad, New Career in Business, as part of her school projects.
Her third album, Bury Me at Makeout Creek, marked a shift in her music style, moving away from classical piano to embrace raw, impulsive guitar. Her career took off when she signed with the independent label Dead Oceans and released Puberty 2. This album, featuring the hit song Your Best American Girl, received critical acclaim and established her as a prominent indie artist.
In 2018, Mitski released Be the Cowboy, which explored a different persona and reached high positions on various music charts, including Billboard. She continued experimenting with her music, contributing songs to soundtracks, and writing a score for a graphic novel.
In 2022, she released Laurel Hell, which debuted at number five on the Billboard 200 chart. Her music journey has been marked by constant evolution and a commitment to exploring new sounds and themes, making her a celebrated figure in the indie music scene.
