THE STRINGS SESSION
13.08.2012
In september 2012 the miramode orchestra invites 10 guest musicians for an unique series of concerts. In addition to the rhythm group and the horn section, the band will be supported by a full string orchestra by which the orchestral elements get more attention. With purely acoustic means symphonic elements merge with driving beats, leading to a high-energy, innovative sound. A special kind of unplugged concert.

About/Contact
Mira Mode is an emerging collective of young musicians teaming with the Berlin based saxophonist and music composer Ede Merkel.
The Mira Mode band counts twelve musicians; three brass-, five strings players and an entire rhythm section. Together they introduce an urban mix of genre spanning acoustic sound. Experimental influences are clearly audible, yet jazz, funk and electronic music based grooves provide the breeding ground on which the spaciously arranged Songs of Mira Mode unfold.
In various concerts, Miramode has featured a variety of vocalists from the Berlin scene.
The debut – album „Restless City“ will be released by the cologne label „Double Moon Records“. In cooperation with Germany's biggest jazz magazine it will be published in the series "jazz thing next generation" in spring 2013.
