Canadian soul/pop singer Miranda Joan‘s highly anticipated album Windborne is finally out. As you’d expect, the 7-track project feels captivatingly smooth. The song “My Muse”, which preceded the album, offers a great place to start your listening.

“My Muse” is Miranda’s ode to music. She explains, “This is my sexy love song to my muse, my passion, my partner: music. A friend of mine once told me that art will always be there when I need it, and ain’t that the truth. I look for her – my muse – to bandage all my bumps and bruises with melody and lyrics, she is where I channel my spirit and a safe place to land my love.”

Born in Montréal and raised in Vancouver, where she’s currently based, Joan had previously resided in New York City where she got to perform on national tours and well-attended local gigs.

Now back in Vancouver, she is working closely with the local community. In particular, she’s involved with the non-profit organisation SAY to mentor kids who stutter.
