Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn, better known by just her first name Mirah, may not seem like a unique artist, but her voice and style put her in a world of her own. I was instantly hooked on her music when her song “The Garden “ on the show “So You Think You Can Dance.” Since I was absolutely obsessed with the song for such a long time, I finally decided to see her live set. It was not what I expected; in fact, it was much better than I expected.
She played at South By Southwest this year, and I made sure to catch her set. It was really different from what I expected because it was a bit mellower than I knew some of her songs to be. Accompanying her and her guitar was also a drummer and violinist. She played songs from her entire repertoire including “Gold Rush,” which was the first time I had heard the song, and it was absolutely beautiful with the live violin. I was also really excited to hear “The Garden” live too, in which during the intro she introduced her band. The live version had a faster pace, and was much more energetic. Instead of an electronic sound, they used all kinds of percussion instruments to supplement the song, which gave it much more depth. Definitely a great artist to have caught live.
