Bringing the rhythm, sweat, and harmony of South American roots, MIRA will linger long after they have left the stage. MIRA invites you on a date on an exotic, candle-lit journey to the very heart of South American music. Led by the exquisite jazz-trained Chilean vocalist Magdelena Mira, this world-class ensemble blends traditional rhythms with contemporary jazz phrasing, creating an intimate atmosphere that is pure magic.
Magdalena has brought together a top-class band who are all passionately immersed in the music of their ancestors. Combined with Magdalena's unique jazz phrasing and improvisation, MIRA is the rhythm, sweat, and harmony of South American roots animated by a contemporary spirit.
