Search - Mirah :: The Old Days Feeling

A diminutive woman high collar librarian style, big glasses and a bigger guitar. Her voice and song are singular not exactly bred from the Ramones and Ronettes, but certainly compatible, of a complimentary angle. Who is that? Mirah. This is a short excerpt taken from the liner notes of The Old Days Feeling. K Records founder, Calvin Johnson recalls initial encounters with Mirah, setting the stage for which much of these songs originate. This collection comes from a variety of sources, home recordings, hard to find foreign compilations, out-of-print releases, alternate versions or previously unreleased tracks. Mirah is aided by a slew of friends on these songs including Phil Elverum (Microphones/Mt. Eerie), Karl Blau and Calvin Johnson. Coupled by her unmistakable voice, these lo-fi, experimental recordings are indicative of what has become Mirah's distinct sound.
