Thao and Mirah both often go by their first names only. That is mostly why they wanted to make a record together. Other reasons include: they are friends, they were finally in San Francisco at the same time, and both joyfully welcomed a short departure from their respective successful solo careers to collaborate on a project.
Mirah (K records) started making music in the late 90's in the Pacific Northwest, becoming a much beloved indie fixture there and well beyond. Read more on Last.fm
Thao & Mirah team up to create quite a unique sound. It’s indy, it’s folky, and it’s dreamy. But sometimes, unfortunately it’s just weird. They use some unique instruments, like knee slaps and spoons, which works well in most songs. In others, though, it just seems like something is out of place. All in all a good album with some great tracks. There are just some of these tracks that I’ve got to skip, or just not add to my playlists at all.
