Mia has developed a strong fan base from touring the US and Europe constantly, at times doing solo shows and at times with the likes of Folk Implosion and Alaska! Along with touring, she keeps herself busy with musical collaborations with Dntel, Beachwood Sparks, DJ Nobody, Adventure Time, Folk Implosion, The Mission, Saul Williams and more. When Mia first began as an artist, she would write songs about nature, first loves, heartbreaks and she discovered her role as a bard, a folksinger, in the traditions of William Blake, Joni Mitchell, Leonard Cohen, Nico, Caetano Veloso and Sinead O'Connor. On Manzanita, she shows how she's grown as a songwriter and a singer and one that will continue to grow. She describes her process of writing a song, "with my guitar or at the piano, I find a pattern I like and then I stare at the wall until the melody and the lyrics appear. When the song reaches its Platonic ideal, I congratulate it and let it be." |
