Lauded as “one of the country’s hottest songwriters” Miriam has a stack of stage cred headlining national tours and supporting Wilco, Mark Lanegan and Ron Sexsmith with whom the NZ Herald headlined “An impressive offering from two finely matched singer-songwriters - Clancy simply enchanted on the bittersweet ballads”, and elsewhere “Concert Of The Year - NZ’s answer to Martha Wainwright - destined to go places”. Miriam’s recent single Pennsylvania (https://youtu.be/tWZ2hymNq4I) was crafted deep in the Lehigh Valley at the foot of the Appalachian mountains, and features alt-country rock heroes Frog Holler. It invites you to ‘get lost and found again in this searing love-letter to Pennsylvania’ in an intimate folk collision where vintage drum machine carries you onward with banjos, synthesizers and the beautifully dueling voices of Miriam, Darren Schlappich and Mike Lavdanski – and it has struck a chord both locally and in New Zealand. With the first single due from her forthcoming album Black Heart, Miriam draws upon her organic folk-rock beginnings with an impressive band, bringing each song to life with her voice centered - guiding you forward. Miriam will debuting a hand selected set of these new songs solo, just her and a guitar - along with some other great songs we all know and love. “A girlie version of Elliot Smith or Jeff Buckley - a soul laid bare, but with a pretty twist."
