The debut Mirah album recorded with production assistance by Phil Elverum at Dub Narcotic studio and at her home four track arrangement in Olympia, Washington.

It's like this: Mirah writes and sings the songs that mean the mostest. She looks like a valentine. She sings like the valentine of all time first prize. Her power lies in steeping the feelings that motivate her, simmering and condensing them, encased in herself. Then she creates a rich, tender space where the listener can really be touched by this dense, potent package she sends directly to them in a deliciously seductive, complexly sculpted lullaby, honest and true. Her finger picking is nice. Did you ever notice how she leans her front foot on her back foot? She don't miss no notes.
