Mira Cook is a vocalist and multi-instrumentalist. What started off as home-made tape overdubbing experiments developed into entrancing electronic/pop/folk songs which still retain a unique and intimate feel. Mira's second album"Broken Bones" was named in the Top 10 albums of 2012 by staff at Waterloo Records in Austin:http://www.waterloorecords.com/CustomPage/1460AQUARIUS RECORDS' write up of Broken Bones:"We've been HUGE fans of Mira Cook since her first cassette, which we sold tons of when we first carried it about three years ago. Since then she put out her first full length which only made our love of her intimate, unique and honest music, grow stronger. We've been anticipating this release for a while now, and Broken Bones might just be her finest moment yet.In so many ways Cook is a shining example of the true meaning of DIY. She teaches herself how to play different instruments, expands and experiments with the possibilities of her voice, and puts out her own records filled with songs that she writes, arranges and performs all by herself. That work ethic pays off and you can feel it in the sincerity and warmth in this new set of songs. While they still maintain the same immediacy and charm as her earlier work there is a deeper emotional impact as well as more space and breadth in these songs which truly work their way under our skin and into our subconsciousness. While folks like Tune-Yards and Dirty Projectors have become huge, there is something so much more organic, satisfying and subtle in Cook's songs that make us wish that SHE was the the one on the cover of so many magazines. Cook has really mastered the use of repetition as means to create a trance inducing aura in her songs, and then her beautiful and mesmerizing voice and poignant lyrics just seal the deal. Stunning!"http://www.aquariusrecords.org/cat/irwin.htmlAmoeba Records Blog says:"Every once in a while an artist who is totally unique yet immediately relatable and instantly engaging comes along and wins you over; the sort of artist whose soothing, seductive sound, with soulful melodies & heartfelt harmonizing, creeps up on you and pulls you in from the first few bars...Mira Cook is this kind of artist."http://www.amoeba.com/blog/2009/04/jamoeblog/mira-cook-s-unique-yet-familiar-winning-sound.htmlMira lives in Brooklyn, NY.
