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.

HOW NOW

Look at you, look at you
Look at you, look at you 

Ancient-treetop from the neck-up and newborn-calf in the knees
Will the goodness we have witnessed stay good for centuries? 

This is so new, how now!
Look at you, look at you 

Honey still hot from the tired bees 
Sweet sap weeping from our favorite tree 
Tell me will the goodness we have witnessed
stay good like this for centuries ? 

You and me, let's get together!
Watch what you call for — all birds have a call 
Look at you, look at you
Look at you, look at you
