Miriam Clancy to support Wilco

Miriam Clancy to support Wilco

Wednesday 12th March, 2008 12:00PM

Recently returned from a successful expedition to the U.S, Silver Scroll nominee Miriam Clancy is chosen to play support for double Grammy winning US band Wilco on their NZ shows at the end of the month.

While in the States, Miriam was interviewed and lauded as "the next biggest thing to hit Nashville" on nationwide G.A.C. TV show, Edge Of Country; her video for "Girl About Town" is in rotation and gaining great response, her music is playing on indie radio in New York - "The Indie Revolution Radio Show", and she has also been interviewed for Japanese and Australian Press and Radio as well as interest from journalists for Q and Mojo magazines in the UK.

In her short time back home a special Anzac Day documentary "Night After Night" featuring a song by Miriam Clancy and Whirimako Black will be aired, as well as her gorgeous vocals alongside Dave Dobbyn on his anthemic Welcome Home for a current TV commercial. The producer liked her voice so much they have asked her to sing on a new version of the song for Dave's forthcoming album.

Future plans include a return trip to the States around August to help keep momentum going there and a highly anticipated new record is in the pipeline. Miriam has been compared to Feist and Martha Wainwright, and may blush at the suggestion but with her debut album 'Lucky One' she has earned accolades from some of this country's most seasoned music critics and the hearts of many new fans.
