The Garden Lyrics: Oh oh / I really wanted that thing / I just want to sing / I love you baby, won't you bring / All the flowers you find out in the garden / Don't tell me the truth / That your heart.

Mirah (born Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn) is an American musician and songwriter based in Brooklyn, New York. After getting her start in the music scene of Olympia, Washington in the late 1990s, she released a number of well-received solo albums on K Records, including You Think It's Like This but Really It's Like This (1999) and Advisory Committee (2001). Her 2009 album (a)spera^[1] peaked on the BillboardTop Heatseekers chart at #46,^[2] while her 2011 collaborative album Thao + Mirah peaked at #7.

She has released eleven full-length solo and collaborative recordings, numerous EP's and 7' vinyl records, and has contributed tracks to a wide variety of compilations. Mirah has collaborated with artists such as Phil Elvrum of The Microphones, Tune-Yards, Susie Ibarra, Jherek Bischoff and Thao Nguyen. Her newest release, Sundial EP, was released on October 6, 2017 on her imprint Absolute Magnitude Records.

Her style encompasses indie pop, acoustic, and experimental pop. According to The Rumpus in 2011, 'Mirah's early records...are DIY mini-masterpieces that express a punk sensibility through broken drum machines, reverb-drenched guitars and ukulele. Her more recent albums...are mature, complex and immaculately-produced.'^[3]

Early life, education[edit]

Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn^[1] was born on September 17, 1974, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the youngest of three children.^[4] Her mother is a painter and massage therapist and together with her father ran a small natural foods bakery throughout Mirah's childhood and adolescence. Her father worked delivering Rolling Stone magazine for several years in the late 1970s. Her parents raised the family on macrobiotic foods.^[5] Her father was an avid music lover with a large record collection^[6] and Mirah developed an early interest in music.^[1] As a child, she listened heavily to Motown, 1960s R&B, soul music, and folk music.^[6]

Mirah's family moved a number of times between 1974 and 1979, including a stint on a hippiecommune near Spencer, West Virginia^[5] and several years in a rural Pennsylvania farmhouse adjacent to the farm owned by her extended family.^[7] The family moved to Bala Cynwyd, a suburb of Philadelphia, in 1979.^[8] Her mother's family identifies as Protestant and her father is Jewish.^[8] Mirah was raised observing Shabbat and identifies as Jewish.^[9]

Mirah took part in a number of anti-nuclear walks during her middle school and high school years, including a 6-week stretch of the 9-month cross country Great Peace March for Global Nuclear Disarmament in 1986 when she was 12.^[10] In middle school she developed a love of 1980s pop music and female artists such as Sinead O'Connor and Cyndi Lauper.^[6] By the time she got to college, her music collection had expanded to include a diverse range of artists^[5] (Huggy Bear, Cat Stevens, The Pretenders, Nina Simone, etc.).

Music career[edit]

Start in Olympia (1990s)[edit]

After graduating high school early at 16, Mirah spent a year traveling^[11] before moving to Olympia, Washington in 1992 to attend the Evergreen State College.^[12] She taught herself guitar and wrote her first song as an assignment for class.^[13] While in college she worked at a collectively run vegetarian campus café with Kimya Dawson, who later became her label-mate at K Records.^{[citation needed]}

She was a member of the short-lived all-female Olympia band The Drivers with Molly Burgdorf and Sarah Reed.^[14] For a short stint she sang with a swing band and occasionally contributed vocals to an early incarnation of Old Time Relijun. She was briefly the drummer for The Chosen, a Jewish heavy metal duo. In 1996 she began developing her own musical style, composing lo-fi indie pop with vocals and acoustic guitar. Her early style drew comparisons to Liz Phair, and she soon began performing around Olympia under the one-name moniker Mirah.^[1]

Mirah was involved with a number of 'secret cafes' in Olympia, including The Red Horse Cafe which she and her roommate Ariana Jacob ran out of their one bedroom apartment. The Red Horse Cafe served a different menu every Sunday for a year and a half in 1998/1999. The Red Horse Cafe appears in the documentary short 9 Weeks.^[15] She was also involved with several large scale theatrical productions including The Transfused,^[16] a 2000 rock opera written by Nomy Lamm and The Need.

Though surrounded by the local riot grrrl movement of the 1990s, Mirah didn't explicitly associate herself with the genre.^[11]

After graduating from the Evergreen State College in 1996, she began experimenting on her 4-track recorder with sounds that would be used on her debut album.^[8] Her first EP Storageland was released on Yoyo Recordings in 1997^[4] and received a positive review in Allmusic.^[17] The 6 song one sided 12' featured an etching on the B side by artist Nikki McClure. According to Laura Leebove in Venus Zine, listeners were 'drawn to the unpolished sound...with its sometimes muffled vocals, raw guitars, and background-noise cracklings.'^[18] In 1999 she self-released a second EP titled Parts of Human Desire. The bulk of her first records were recorded at the Dub Narcotic studio space in Olympia Washington.^[16]

Olympia musician Phil Elvrum soon invited her to contribute guitar and vocals to his psychedelic pop group The Microphones, and she performs on many Microphones recordings including Don't Wake Me Up (1999) and Window (2000).^[1] She later toured extensively with The Microphones across the US and Canada.^[1] According to The Rumpus, Mirah 'was part of the K Records renaissance [of the late '90s] along with bands like The Microphones, The Blow and Old Time Relijun – all highly distinct, idiosyncratic groups with Calvin Johnson's influence perhaps manifesting in the form of a primitivist or intentionally naïve approach.'^[3]

Early albums (2000–2005)[edit]

You Think It's Like This but Really It's Like This (2000)

Mirah joined the Olympia-based label K Records in 1999.^[4] Her full-length debut and first album on the label, You Think It's Like This but Really It's Like This, was released on June 6, 2000. Produced by Mirah and Phil Elvrum, it scored 4/5 stars from Allmusic, who called it 'a masterpiece of lo-fi beauty' and praised 'Mirah's wistful voice and intimately personal lyrics.'^[19]

Small Sale EP (2001)

Small Sale EP is a 2001 album by Mirah released on Modern Radio Records.^[20] Songs were recorded from 1999 to 2001 at Mirah's house and the recording studio Dub Narcotic,^[16] all while Mirah was still touring for her previous album. It was positively received by Allmusic, who compared Mirah's vocals to Lucinda Williams and called her voice 'intoxicatingly endearing, as are the electronic beats and textures she uses as deftly as she does a ukulele or acoustic guitar.'^[20]

Advisory Committee (2002)

Mirah's second full-length album was recorded over a one-year period, starting on September 17, 2000 and ending on July 4, 2001, and was produced by both Mirah and Phil Elvrum. Advisory Committee was released on K Records on March 19, 2002, and was well-received, earning an Allmusic score of 4.5/5^[21] and a Pitchfork Media score of 8.3/10, who praised the maturity of her voice and lyrics.^[22]

Cold Cold Water EP (2002)

Mirah's Cold Cold Water EP was released on March 19, 2002 on K Records.^[23] It received a positive review in Pitchfork, who praised the title track, stating 'the song is deadly serious, dark, and full of the kind of not-so vague sexual innuendos we've come to expect from Mirah. Then, Phil Elvrum's panoramic, Morricone-esque production technique explodes onto the soundstage.' Pitchfork called the other three tracks 'admirable bedroom folk.'^[24]

Songs from the Black Mountain Music Project (2003)

Songs from the Black Mountain Music Project is a collaboration between Mirah and Ginger Brooks Takahashi. It was written by Mirah and Takahashi in a secluded house in the Blue Ridge Mountains in 2002, and recorded using a Tascam four-track and a mini-disc recorder. According to Allmusic, 'the chirping birds, lonesome train whistles, and buzzing insects that pop up throughout [the album] make it feel like a collection of audio postcards from Takahashi and Mirah's vacation.' K Records released the album on August 19, 2003.^[25]

After living in Washington state for about ten years, Mirah moved to Portland, Oregon^[6] around early 2004.^[8]

To All We Stretch the Open Arm (2004)

Performed by Mirah and the Black Cat Orchestra, To All We Stretch the Open Arm is a collection of political songs by a variety of songwriters. Songs include covers of artists such as Fausto Amodei, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Kurt Weill, Bertholt Brecht, Horacio Guarany, and Stephen Foster, and several original songs by Mirah as well. Recorded in Seattle in early 2003, it was released on Yoyo Records in 2004 to a positive review in Allmusic^[26] and a mixed review from Pitchfork.^[27] According to Allmusic, 'While the album certainly addresses war and oppression with an appropriately somber tone, To All We Stretch the Open Arm doesn't lose sight of how important passion and wit are to any good protest.'^[26]

C'mon Miracle (2004)

Mirah The Garden Download

C'mon Miracle is Mirah's third full-length solo album.^[28] Several of the songs on C'mon Miracle reflect her experience visiting South America, specifically Buenos Aires, Argentina.^[8] The two songs recorded in Buenos Aires were co-produced with Mirah's long-time collaborator Bryce Kasson, also known as Bryce Panic. The rest of the tracks were co-produced with Phil Elvrum. The album was released on K Records on May 4, 2004 to a positive reception,^[29] earning 8.5/10 from Pitchfork.^[30]

She released a music video for the C'mon Miracle single 'Don't Die in Me,' which was created by Tara Jane O'Neil and Kristina Davies and features animated drawings and paintings by O'Neil.^[31]

Share This Place: Stories and Observations

Released on K Records on August 7, 2007, Share This Place: Stories and Observations is a collaborative album between Mirah and Spectratone International (Lori Goldston and Kyle Hanson, formerly of the Black Cat Orchestra).^[34] The subject matter revolves around the lives of insects, and the album was inspired by the writing of 19th century entomologist and poet J. Henri Fabre, as well as The Insect Play by Karel Capek. Stop motion films by Britta Johnson were also a part of the project. According to Allmusic, '[the songs] are intricate and beautifully made, giving a larger scale to the big events in these tiny lives – birth, death, mating, eating, sacrifice, survival – while keeping the details that make them fascinating.'^[35] As of September 2008 she was touring and performing with Spectratone International, playing a string of gigs on the west coast.^[10]

In 2008, she had an essay published in the book Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls.^[13]

The Old Days Feeling, singles

She performed at Ladyfest in Seattle, Philadelphia, London, and Amsterdam,^[41] as well as at several Yoyo A Go Go festivals.^[42][43] In 2009 she started working with the Billions booking agency.

Recent releases (2009–present)[edit]

(a)spera, touring (2009)

(a)spera, the title of Mirah's fourth full-length studio album, released on March 10, 2009,^[44] is a play on the Latin words for hope and difficulty.^[8] It was her first solo album after a four-year hiatus spent working on collaborations and remixes of previous albums.^[45] As with many of her previous releases it was co-produced by Phil Elverum and released on K Records.^[44] She also worked with Grammy-nominated producer Tucker Martine on 4 of the tracks.

The album peaked on the BillboardTop Heatseekers chart at #46,^[2] and received largely positive reviews.^{[46][47][48][49][50]}PopMatters praised Elverum's production, stating, 'The musical marriage of Mirah and Elverum is one of those rare perfect meeting of the minds—Jay-Z and Kanye, Butch Vig and Kurt Cobain...through the intelligent production of Elvrum...she is able to set her thoughts upon soaring mountains of musical genius.'^[49]

As of May 2009 she had toured both the US and Europe in support of the album,^[8] and she moved to San Francisco in November of that year.^[6] Her 2010 music video for 'The Forest' (from (a)spera) was directed by Lauryn Siegel^[51] and has choreography by Faye Driscoll^[52] and photographed by Ava Berkofsky.^[53]

Thao + Mirah (2010)

In early 2010, after performing with singer-songwriter Thao Nguyen at the Noise Pop Festival in San Francisco, the two announced a 2010 North American tour, billed under the name Thao and Mirah with the Most of All.^[54] They performed a collaborative set and shared vocal duties on each artist's respective songs. They subsequently recorded a full-length album of original material called Thao + Mirah. Produced by musician Merrill Garbus of the band Tune-Yards, the album was released by Kill Rock Stars on April 26, 2011.^[55] It was well received by music critics;^[56][57][58] according to Pitchfork, 'everything on Thao & Mirah feels of a cohesive collaborative piece, separate from either artist's solo work, a combination that synthesizes their individual strengths to outstanding effect.'^[57]

The two toured in support of the album^[59] while working with Air Traffic Control, an organization that provides artists a platform for social activism.^[60]

2010–present

She released a solo EP Don't/The Tears That Fall EP in 2010 as a vinyl single on K Records. Also in 2010 her track 'Engine Heart' off You Think It's Like This but Really It's Like This was used in the soundtrack for the romantic comedy Love & Other Drugs.

Glide Magazine gave it 9/10 stars, stating the album 'covers a lot of earthly ground, from animals to nature and seasons...Light deals with being in transition on deep levels, confronting mortality in fascinating ways.' The review described her vocals as 'gauzy, but never thin, and this time around she sounds a bit world-wearier. But it works for her, adding a smoky sultriness, and subtle imperfections that make each song rawer because of it.'^[71]

Sundial EP (2017)

Mirah's project, Sundial EP, was released on October 6, 2017 on her imprint label Absolute Magnitude Recordings. In another beautiful collaboration with Jherek Bischoff, the Sundial EP reworks six songs from Mirah's back catalogue with the addition of the EP's title track Sundial. 'Both airy and thoughtful, 'Sundial' stretches heavenward with rising strings and Mirah's voice at its most ethereal as it describes a cluster of ancient beings watching from everywhere in the universe at once—stars, urging the people on their orbiting planets to make their own happiness'^[72]

Understanding (2018)

On September 7, 2018 Mirah released her 2nd full length album on her imprint label Absolute Magnitude Recordings, 'Understanding'. The 10-track record stems from demos recorded during Mirah's time in residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts in Northern California. Mirah returned to New York and fleshed out the rest of the album with frequent collaborators Greg Saunier (of Deerhoof) and Eli Crews (Tune Yards, Julie Ruin).^[73] Mirah released four singles to accompany the album - 'Hot Hot', 'Information', 'Lighthouse', and 'Ordinary Day'.

Style, equipment[edit]

As a vocalist, songwriter, and experimental pop recording artist, Mirah typically works independently while songwriting, though frequently collaborates as a recording artist. In 2007, she began writing collaboratively for the first time with Spectratone International.^[64]

According to The Rumpus in 2011, 'Mirah's early records...are DIY mini-masterpieces that express a punk sensibility through broken drum machines, reverb-drenched guitars and ukulele, singing with frank sexuality in an occasionally child-like voice. Her more recent albums...are mature, complex and immaculately-produced.'^[3]

She primarily plays guitar and also has guest musicians accompany her live and on records. According to Mirah in 2008, 'I play the same guitar as I did when I first started out. I only own two guitars, my Gibson and a little acoustic...So for me, the simpler the better onstage. Just me and my guitar, and sometimes just me and my voice, my favorite instrument.'^[16]

Mirah's ever-evolving live band has included friends and artists such as Bryce Kasson, Tara Jane O'Neil, Rachel Blumberg, Melanie Valera, Alex Guy, Andrew Maguire, Lisa Schonberg, Lori Goldston, Emily Kingan, Christopher Doulgeris, and many others.
