Mitski – I’ll Change For You
Mitski presents “I’ll Change for You,” the second single from her forthcoming album, Nothing’s About to Happen to Me, out February 27th via Dead Oceans, and announces global performances.
Following “Where’s My Phone?,” “I’ll Change for You” is nostalgic and mid-tempo as Mitski’s gorgeous vocal range is backed by a rich accompaniment of a string section, drums and percussion, pianos, guitar, flute, and vibraphone. With desperation, she sings: “‘Cause I’ll do anything // For you to love me again // If you don’t like me now // I will change for you.”
Nothing’s About to Happen to Me finds Mitski immersing herself in a rich narrative whose main character is a reclusive woman in an unkempt house. Outside of her home, she is a deviant; inside of her home, she is free. Directed by Lexie Alley and edited by Rena Johnson, the “I’ll Change for You” video builds upon this world, zeroing in on the chaotic, untidy Tansy House universe presented in the album’s photos by Alley. Printed frame by frame onto film with hand-drawn marks and subtle unsettling distortions, the footage feels like a roll of film that could be found in the Tansy House: fragile, dilapidated, and probably buried under a pile of books.
Mitski will present Nothing’s About to Happen to Me around the world, including residencies in select major cities: six nights at The Shed in New York City, five nights at Hollywood High School in Los Angeles, and four nights at the Sydney Opera House in Sydney. Additional stops include Mexico City, Istanbul, Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam, London, Manila, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, and Singapore. Tickets are available to the public Friday, February 13th with artist presales beginning Wednesday, February 11th at 10am local time. Full presale details for each city can be found at Mitski.com. Support varies by city and includes Sex Week, Gustaf, La Zorra Zapata, Haley Heynderickx, Maria Somerville, Tarta Relena, Gwenifer Raymond, and more.
