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. Check it out below.
“When I first wrote this song it had a sonically pensive aura,” Mirah said of “Catch My Breath” in press materials. “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.”
In 2021, Mirah reissued two formerly out-of-print LPs, 2002’s Advisory Committee and 2004’s C’mon Miracle. They followed the 20th-anniversary reissue of Mirah’s debut album, You Think It’s Like This But Really It’s Like This, which included a supplemental tribute album featuring covers from Mount Eerie, Allison Crutchfield, Shamir, Half Waif, and others.
