Mirah (NYC) w/ Death Vessel (Providence, RI)

Mirah
Website | Facebook | Twitter | K Records | PitchforkDefined by her graceful songwriting and adventuresome recordings, Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn has been crafting genre-defying independent pop records since 1999. Pitchfork has praised her “incredible voice—a versatile coo that can flit from low, sultry tones to high, airy falsetto in one breath.”
She has released over a dozen solo and collaborative recordings on K Records, Kill Rock Stars and various US domestic and foreign independent labels and has performed extensively, both solo and with her ever-revolving backup band.
Soon after relocating to Brooklyn New York in 2012, Mirah completed her new solo album, Changing Light, set for release on her own Absolute Magnitude Recordings label in May of 2014.
“Mirah has grown markedly as a songwriter and the emphasis is now mostly provided by expansive string orchestrations, bold bursts of horns, and deftly placed vocal harmonies that recall early Cat Power… She has completely avoided the trap of sounding too repetitive-- a curse of many solo singer-songwriters who have released a few albums-- and instead chooses to employ a different approach to every song.” – Pitchfork.com
