Mipso, Americana band formed at UNC, seeks fresh ways of creating on sixth studio record

Posted Nov 13, 2023
Following the release of their sixth studio album, “Book of Fools,” Mipso is embarking on a national tour, which included a four-venue tour of North Carolina, where all of the members — and the band itself — grew up. Formed at UNC in the early 2010s, Mipso’s roots are in the Triangle. Some of their first shows were at Cat’s Cradle and Local 506. (Daily Tar Heel)
