Mima Merrow is a Belfast born, Glasgow living singer songwriter. Her music is a unique blend of alternative folk; her subtle Belfast accent peeking through wistful piano lines and dynamic sonic builds. Influenced by that which is ancient in our landscapes, elements and bodies, her thoughtful lyricism is held together by intimacy, pain and stories to challenge her listeners. She self produced and released her debut EP, Good Grief, on the 4th December 2020 which was met with a very positive critical response: ‘A startling first taster’ Tom Robinson, Radio 6 Music. ‘When beautiful poetry and great sounds collide.’ Roddy Hart, BBC Radio Scotland ‘Full of fire.’ Stephen McCauley, BBC Radio Ulster/BBC Radio Foyle She is now working on her debut album- Almost Home.
In the process of making my debut album, Almost Home, I’m learning very quickly that making music costs a lot of money and yet a lack of funding makes it difficult for an entire industry of highly skilled professionals to make a living. Thanks to securing some funding from Creative Scotland, I can pay some musicians, studios, graphic designers, videographers, photographers, mixing and mastering engineers, PR specialists who are helping me create my album. However, I still haven't reached my target to be able to pay them all. Also, to be completely honest, I would also like to pay myself for doing the work that I love!
