Mirah Will Finally Let Us Know What A Four-Year Album Sounds Like
10 months ago

Mirah has never been a lover of the limelight. She doesn't do a ton of interviews. She takes her time. And, in this instance, she's taken over four years to get us her fourth full-length solo album, a (spera). The long-awaited follow up to 2004's C'mon Miracle (TMT Review) comes after a lot of time spent touring small clubs and participating in quirky collaboration efforts. Joyride: Remixes, fo...

Mirah oh Mirah

So, Mirah recently released her fourth album (a)spera and while I'm a fan of her I'm dissapointed by this release. There's all the signature Mirah elements here, the harp and the bare backing to Mirah's great vocals but I feel like I've heard this all before on her two prior releases C'mon Miracle and Advissory Committee. Which is sad because I enjoyed those albums so much and now after a four ...

Live: Mirah
about 1 year ago

Mirah. October 21st, 2008 at the Museum Of Fine Arts in Boston, MA. Photo credit here (not from this show). On a cold Tuesday night, here in Boston, Mirah brought warmth and sincerity to polite crowd the Museum Of Fine Arts. Seeing Mirah live reminded me of the last solo artist performance I saw, which was Sondre Lerche. Seeing Sondre Lerche live and seeing Mirah live are two wholly diff...

    Joyride: Remixes [11/21] *

So um, how did I never hear about this double album of Mirah remixes? Luckily now that I know about it I also found out the girl who got me into Mirah has it! So tomorrow I told her I'd trade her a date for a copy of it. Mirah has one of the best voices. Listening to "Lucky Little Shark" makes me want to make love to her. Ahhhhhhh...too much good stuff man, I tell ya!Oh and I got The Knife fina...

Mirah: My Metric Substitute

Blog post image preview

It is officially autumn, yet the seasons are in limbo: some days are sticky and muggy, while others sharply wake you up when the damp, cold air hits you on the first step out the door in the morning. I'm ready for "summall" to be over and I welcome fall in its entirety with open arms. I'm ready for layers. I'm ready for fallen leaves. I'm ready for a change.Just like the sea...
