Release Of The Week
Miho Wada - Postcards To Your Bed
Miho is a virtuouso flute and saxophone plater....whose talent was spotted by none other than Nigel Kennedy at the Ronnie Scott's Jazz Club in 2003 - which then led her to perform jazz trio concerts with him in London and Malven.
She plays and sings a repertoire of her original songs and improvised music with Japanese flavors accompanied on Marimba, Guitars, Bass and Percussion/Drums, creating a cutting edge, contemporary world music sound.
Postcards To Your Bed, her debut album, was produced and engineered by Ollivier Ballester and mastered in Sydney at Benchmark Mastering by Don Bartley.
You can currently grab P_ss Off (such a loser!) from the album for free until this Friday (29/01).
