A thoughtful songwriter with a deceptively sweet voice, Mirah blends indie pop, folk, jazz, and soul into her empathetic music. In the late '90s and early 2000s, she defined the sound of K Records along with artists such as the Microphones, whose leader, Phil Elverum, became one of her most inspired collaborators. Together, on albums including 2000's You Think It's Like This But Really It's Like This and 2002's Advisory Committee, they mixed guileless indie with more sophisticated influences. Later, Mirah worked with Thao Nguyen and Jherek Bischoff, and collaborative projects like 2007's Share This Place and 2011's Thao + Mirah were as vital to her body of work as her solo albums. Mirah's style also evolved over the years, encompassing 2009's subtle (A)spera and the more eclectic sounds of 2018's Understanding, but her ability to switch from playful to profound from one breath to another remained.
Mirah has also released music as a member of Drivers and The Microphones.
