Genre: Folk, African influences, blues infused melodies
About:“All lilting folk tunes overlaid with sprightly Kora (West African harp) playful strings and dreamy (vocal) harmonies as though Joni Mitchell and Paul Simon had convened in a Bamako back street. “ - The Guardian December 2021
African influences blend seamlessly with blues-infused melodies & soaring vocal harmonies in the music by singer songwriter Miriam Lieberman. Her songs are soulful collections of stories, beautifully told through kora, guitar & Lieberman’s unmistakable voice. She is joined by stellar musician Lara Goodridge (Baby et Lulu/FourPlay), adding luscious vocal harmonies & soaring violin. Together they offer a powerful soundscape.
Amongst the themes are a love for the natural world, stories of transformation, motherhood, love, loss and the power of imagination. The music is coloured by Miriam's transformational time studying in Latin America & West Africa that has left an imprint on her musical style and tone.
