So I have a tendency to fall in love with music other people introduce me to and usually years after an album has been released. When Jay played Mirah for me, I melted. It had been so long since I had a love affair with an artist (since Ani DiFranco) and I hadn’t even realized I was aching for a new one. If you followed my blog last summer and fall, you probably remember me drooling over, I mean paying much respect to Mirah.

She has at least 7 albums, all of which I love.

But truth be told, I love her earlier stuff even more. She has a mixture of sounds, a lot of texture, and the earlier albums highlight her talent far more than her newest.
