On her fifth solo album, Mirah breaks it down and builds it back up again with the street smarts that only years behind the wheel of love can inspire.  Ready with the maps and driven to the rhythms on the radio dial, Changing Light’s ten songs carry us from heartbreak to wholeness and all the places in between.

Uprooted from her home after a scorching break-up, Mirah spent four years rambling and recording.  Tracks were laid down in almost two dozen houses and apartments — from the Northwest to Southern California to the East Coast. Sparse demos were recorded with co-producer Christopher Doulgeris in Portland and Los Angeles.  Embellishments were then added by a slew of friends and collaborators, including Greg Saunier (Deerhoof), Mary Timony, Emily Wells, and Heather McEntire (Mount Moriah).  In Philadelphia, Mirah and her sister Emily Zeitlyn (Divers) penned “LC,” an homage to childhood inspiration Leonard Cohen.  Seattle-based composer Jherek Bischoff drew up intricate string arrangements which were recorded in the living rooms of each individual player.  And Tune-Yards producer Eli Crews co-produced several tracks with Mirah in her new hometown of Brooklyn, New York.

Changing Light’s reassuring compass is found in Mirah’s shimmering vocals and incisive descriptions.  There is yearning (“Gold Rush” and “Fleetfoot Ghost”) and hot anger (“Goat Shepherd”), but no shortage of lyrical and musical playfulness. Whether it be the T. Rex-inspired rough edges of “Radiomind,” the rollicking lo-fi bang-and-pop of “Goat Shepherd,” or the lush pop balladry of “Turned the Heat Off,” the album corrals string sections and vintage synths with horns, a multitude of guitar tones and overdriven drums.  With calm and clamor, Mirah brings us all closer together through her universal honesty and occasional use of the vocoder.

“It’s a break-up record.  It has some moments of darkness, some twists and turns, but ultimately, there’s a resolution,” says Mirah.  "So much can happen in four years, even forgiveness.”

While Mirah has been making independent pop records for well over a decade, Changing Light is the debut release on her new imprint, Absolute Magnitude Recordings.

Mirah’s Changing Light is out May 13th on Absolute Magnitude Recordings with support from K Records.

Ginger And The Ghost arrived in 2012 with early support from Triple J in Australia for their debut single ‘Where Wolf’ and global tastemakers embraced their alternative pop artistry. 

The partnership of Missy and Daniel, two mixed media visual artists who make up Ginger and The Ghost was created through a desire to do something for themselves, on their own terms. Hiding away in a converted water tank in the Australian bush, the duo were able to find the freedom to create. 

In March 2013, Ginger And The Ghost generated a huge buzz from their successful North American tour, including six SXSW shows, CMW, four in New York and ending the tour with a sold out San Francisco show supporting Poolside. Topping of this tour their single ‘One Type Of Dark’ reached No. 1 on the Hypem chart, which has hit over half a million plays.

A national Australian tour for their One Type Of Dark EP followed in July, sending key Australian media such as Groupie magazine into a frenzy over their incredible self made costuming and avant garde live set design. Their latest single ‘The Mark Of Hearts’ recently drew the praises of global tastemakers such as Nylon Magazine and more.

Performing at Bigsound in September 2013, the band returned to the US in October for a string of blistering sets at New York’s CMJ Convention. In 2014 Ginger And The Ghost will be gracing the UK for the first time with showcases at the Great Escape in May. In March 2014 Ginger And The Ghost will launch their next EP – Call Up The Whales in conjunction with a national EP Tour.

Victory and defeat. The darkness and the light….. This is Ginger And The Ghost.
