SXSW Examiner: The Mieka Canon brought haunting, powerful folk style to SXSW
author: mieka
excerpt:
The Mieka Canon’s lyrical folk sound is reminiscent of Tori Amos with an edgier backing band, or perhaps a female version of Jeff Buckley. The band’s unique blend of powerful, poetic lyrics accompanied by melodic, rock-influenced guitars mesmerized the crowd in the smallish venue, leading many a hungover partygoer to groove along before it even hit mid-afternoon.
she gave us five stars as well !!
audio: we sang to Jeff Buckley’s mother in Austin
author: mieka
Jeff Buckley’s mother came to one of our shows in Austin a few days ago … Brian & I on a whim decided to sing “Hallelujah” to her … Dave (our drummer) whipped out his iPhone when he realized the significance of the moment and recorded us — apologies for the missing half of the 1st verse, but we hadn’t intended to tape it AT ALL (thank you dave) … you also miss me telling the audience “I’m scared shitless to perform this” but perhaps that would take away from the ambience.

after our set, she told Brian she didn’t want the show to end, and our egos are now set forever … she also told me to “keep him alive” … we’re sure as hell trying our best, Mary.

Noise and Booze – “The Mieka Canon, Boston 02_24_10″
author: mieka
excerpt:
Mieka’s smokey vocals and infectious charisma carried the crowd away from the rainy night toward a sanctuary of warm, bluesy oblivion. Now don’t get me wrong, her songs are not of the cheerful uplifting breed. In fact, songs like “Your a marked man” and “We’re all gonna die,” suggest a dark spirit lives inside this young singer. But what we saw, or rather felt, was the fire and passion of her soul. And believe me, as someone who is all too jaded by musicians who get by on a look and a schtick, it felt GOOD.
