Anna Tivel

Anna Tivel is an American indie folk artist from Portland, Oregon who is critically recognized as "one of the finest songwriters of her generation." She is noted for being a "masterful storyteller" with her music often compared to that of Big Thief's Adrianne Lenker, as well as Elliott Smith and Paul Simon. Frequently collaborating with engineer Brian Joseph (Sufjan Stevens, Bon Iver) and producer Shane Leonard (Mipso, Field Report), Tivel has released six studio albums of new original songs on the Portland-based label Fluff & Gravy Records and one with Mama Bird Recording Co. She also regularly records and releases alternative or acoustic versions of her past work. Tivel's NPR Tiny Desk concert premiered on May 22, 2023 with critic Ann Powers commenting, "Tivel's remarkable empathy elevates her folk-based, jazz-touched compositions from mere stories to secular prayers."
