Miranda and The Beat (USA)
"Combining the garage soul of the Lyres, the rhythmic idiosyncrasy of the Liars, and the avant-
emotionalist-Americana of, like, the Geraldine Fibbers, Miranda and the Beat have cornered themarket on bands with names that imply they’re lying but whose music speaks to ahigher truth." - CREEM
"Miranda and the Beat are more laser-focused than ever on their garage-punk bread and
butter and getting just about everything they can out of it over the record’s dozensongs." - Rosy Overdrive
"Miranda and the Beat incorporates 60s souls, garage, surf and psychedelic, there is also that
classic element of storytelling within the lyrics that foster a certain nostalgia from previous erasincluding late 70s punk and the golden age of folk." - Colorising
In a small town in California, Miranda Zipse and Kim Sollecito started Mirandaand The Beat, abad girl duo with a penchant for penning hits. Miranda, a high school dropout at15, had been
working for her moms estate sale business going through dead people'sbelongings and making
up melodies in her head as she went about it. After playing locally the twodecided to visit New
York City and tried their chops playing gigs around town. When their friendsand local legends,
The Mystery Lights, went on tour, the two shacked up in their apartment andsimply decided
never to leave. Giving up all their possessions and sacrificing a tawdry normalexistence to lead
a true path of illuminated rock n’roll.
Kim and Miranda shared a bed, looking for work and honing their craft. Theymet their Farfisaplayer Dylan Fernandez when he delivered W**d to a guy Miranda was dating atthe time in
their apartment. A few years later they added Dylan’s little brother, AlvinJackson on bass after the departure of Kate Gutwald. The band played around New York City mixingtheir witchcraft
with true gut wrenching RnB and writing what would become their debut album.In 2022 they finally left the big city and toured 7 fun filled weeks in every nook, cranny andbutthole of the US
and Canada with The King Khan and BBQ Show.
After losing a tooth and a few broken bones later, the band is now ready for the world to hear their self-titled debut album on King Khan’s Khannibalism label. It is hot and spicy with tracks
like Sweat, glorifying hangover sweats “all up in your crack.” Mixed and with production by Nick
Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, their debut album is a hallucinogenic ode to the cannon of soul, garage punk, pure RnB and utter mayhem. “I never thought I would see someone be able to play guitar with the ferocity of Link Wray, and sing like Lydia Lunch had a nuclear meltdown and morphed into Etta James and
Yma Sumac. Miranda in the Beat ARE the quintessential heirs to our rock n’ roll throne... May the circlere main unbroken. Consider the torch has not only been passed but its fiery tale is ready to set
the whole world on fire all over again.” - King Khan “Emperor of RnB”
