Mipso brings their distinctive and stirring indie folk sound, which recently landed them on Rolling Stone’s list of favorite bands at DelFest 2016, to The Gold Room in Colorado Springs on March 2, The Bluebird in Denver on March 3, and The Caribou Room in Nederland on March 4, all shows with Colorado-grown innovative folk band Gipsy Moon. Touring with a drummer of the first time ever, fans can expect to hear favorites with this expanded instrumentation, plus early listens to new songs from their studio album scheduled for release in spring 2017. Album release details will be announced soon.

Mipso premiered the official video for “Bad Penny,” off of their current album Old Time Reverie via Facebook. The album, which was released last fall, is now available for fans to purchase on 180-gram vinyl. Watch the video HERE and check out the vinyl HERE.

About Mipso:

Critically acclaimed Indie Americana band Mipso continue expanding their sonic resources while doubling down on their experimentation with string band tradition. Dubbed “traditionalist renegades,” Mipso’s music is influenced by the contradiction of their progressive home of Chapel Hill, North Carolina and the surrounding rural southern landscapes.

Mipso’s third album release follows up 2015’s Old Time Reverie. Old Time Reverie shot up the Billboard charts, where it landed at #1 on the Billboard Bluegrass Chart and in the Top 25 of the Billboard Heatseakers Chart. With songwriting hailed as “smartly written, hewing surprisingly close to gospel and folk while still sounding modern and secular” (Acoustic Guitar), the album was named among the “Best Records of the Year” by The Guardian - for the band’s “aptitude for stunning harmonies” and for its “lush and moving songs.”

Mipso is: Jacob Sharp (mandolin, vocals), Wood Robinson (bass, vocals), Joseph Terrell (guitar, vocals), Libby Rodenbough (fiddle, vocals)
