“Like other artist-philosophers of the human heart before her, Olsen creates a spirit of hard-won knowledge, the feeling of steadiness in a brutal world.” (Pitchfork)
Delivering heartbreaking songs with a distinctive warble inspired by the sounds of vintage country music, Angel Olsen’s career as a songwriter, musician, and performer has grown increasingly lush and dramatic across several albums.
At LOH, Olsen will perform solo, exploring songs from her entire catalog, and digging into eras she does not often get to when performing with her band.
Having debuted with the reverb-heavy solo indie folk of 2010’s Strange Cacti, Olsen expanded her sound to an alt-country power trio for her third album, 2014’s Burn Your Fire for No Witness, her Billboard 200 debut. Two years later, My Woman reached a career-high number 47 on the chart. While maintaining an intimate character and a haunting sound, Olsen recorded 2019’s All Mirrors with a 14-piece orchestra. Inspired by love and loss tied up in coming out as queer, her sixth and most recent studio album, Big Time, came out in 2022.
She has performed on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Austin City Limits, and has been profiled in The New York Times Magazine, Rolling Stone, and Pitchfork.
Olsen has collaborated with artists including Mark Ronson, Sharon Van Etten, Cass McCombs, Hamilton Leithauser, Marissa Nadler, Jim James, Madi Diaz, and more.
Angel Olsen has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket sold supports Voter Formation Project and their work to increase participation in elections from new and infrequent voters of color.
