"Mirah has shared her first new music in seven years. The Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter's new song "Catch My Breath," her first release since 2018's Understanding, is out now via Double Double Whammy and Mirah's label Absolute Magnitude. The new song also features Flock of Dimes' Jenn Wasner, Hand Habits ' Meg Duffy, and Andrew Maguire in the studio band."
"When I first wrote this song it had a sonically pensive aura. I could tell it was a keeper, but I wanted to try some different presentations, play with it a little. Could the wound spring of questioning and longing and relationship anxiety sound bombastic, or fun, or like an '80s pop song? That's what we went for in the studio. I love how the song expressed its malleability to me and then took so well to the treatment."
Mirah issued a new single titled "Catch My Breath," marking her first release of new music in seven years and her first since 2018's Understanding. The track appears via Double Double Whammy and Mirah's own label, Absolute Magnitude, and features Jenn Wasner (Flock of Dimes), Meg Duffy (Hand Habits), and Andrew Maguire in the studio band. Mirah experimented with multiple sonic presentations in the studio to shape the song's mix of questioning, longing, and relationship anxiety, exploring bombastic, fun, and '80s pop-hearted approaches. Earlier reissues include Advisory Committee and C'mon Miracle, plus a 20th-anniversary debut reissue with a tribute album.
