Mitski releases a new video for “Star.” Directed by Maegan Houang, “the video, feels like a modern film directed by Kenji Mizoguchi boiled down to its most abstract elements. “Unlike the more narrative/concept driven videos Mitski and I have done together in the past, I wanted this video to encapsulate the impressionistic circularity we all experience. Our lives oscillate between light and dark repeating itself in an endless cycle where nothing is permanent. The best moments are fleeting, but so are the bad,” states Houang.

The “Star” video was filmed on a small pond overnight in summer 2023 and presents Mitski performing on a boat in real water amongst painted pieces of wood, creating the illusion of mountains in the background and eliciting what Houang describes as “an otherworldly, atmospheric feeling” to perfectly match the song. Mitski and Houang have a history of collaborating. In addition to “Star,” Houang has directed videos for Puberty 2’s “Happy,” Laurel Hell’s “The Only Heartbreaker” and “Stay Soft.”

After touring Europe and the UK this spring, Mitski will return for a fall run, including a headlining performance at the Hollywood Bowl in September, three concerts at Merriweather Post Pavilion, and two sold-out shows at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley.
