Canadian-born, Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter, and musician Miranda Joan is currently on tour with The Killers and fresh from performances this summer with Kylie Minogue, Orchestre National de Jazz at Montréal Jazz Festival and with CARRTOONS. Miranda has performed on national tours, played sold-out and headline shows at well-known New York venues, provided backing vocals for the likes of Shawn Mendes, Lorde, and Andy Grammar, and joined Sly5thAve at Montréal JazzFest. In 2021 she was selected as one of First Up with RBCxMusic Emerging Artists as she released her debut album ‘Windborne’, the follow up to her 2019 EP “Still”. Both releases received consistent radio airplay and tastemaker support.

‘Overstimulated’ is her highly anticipated new album, co-produced by herself and multi-instrumentalist, and bass extraordinaire CARRTOONS, dropped November 10th. The release features offerings from Sly5thAve, Hailey Niswanger, Jake Sherman, Kristine Kruta aka Lil Kruta (The Eagles), Clairo keys player Danae Greenfield and Grammy-winning bassist Ben Williams. Singles from the album have received previous support from the likes of NPR, Nemone (BBC 6Music), Deb Grant & Tom Ravenscroft (BBC 6Music), Huey Morgan (BBC 6Music), CassKidd (BBC 1Xtra), Francesca Harding (KCRW), Wonderland, Tony Minvielle (Jazz FM), BBC Focus Beats, Boba Fatt (Soho Radio), John Kennedy (Radio X), Consequence, EARMILK, Exclaim!, Stereofox and CBC, as well as playlisting on Spotify’s Fresh Finds and Fresh Finds R&B. “It is an album book-ended by songs of affirmation, of rooting, of returning to and loving oneself, intertwined with the messy, chaotic and interconnected web of my hopes, dreams, imagination, love, and heartache”, Miranda muses.
Born in Montréal, Miranda spent her formative years growing up on the north shore of Vancouver, filling diaries with emotions and experiences. She moved to New York to study Jazz and continued to develop her unique style of soul, pop and jazz. Miranda co-hosts and co-founded Femme Jam (NYC’s first all-female led jam session); a community initiative to create a womxn-led space with an emphasis on female musicians that fosters inclusivity. For the past decade she has been a music mentor with youth who stutter at SAY: The Stuttering Association for the Young.
