Mitski brought her acclaimed performance art show to End Of The Road to help ensure Friday night at the fest went off.
The NYC-based artist played a set drawn from most recent records Be The Cowboy and Puberty 2, with "Geyser" and "Nobody" rapturously received by the throngs in attendance.
Mitski - who has stowed her guitar to perform tightly choreographed dance routines, sometimes using a nearby table as a prop - brought a different side to tracks old and new with her movements.
Parquet Courts, Kelly Lee Owens, and Michael Kiwanuka help close End Of The Road's Friday night before a jam-packed Saturday featuring sets from Courtney Barnett, Kate Tempest, Low, and more.
