BAMM.tv presents: Miho Wada




We’ve all been stuck. More specifically--more interestingly--we’ve all been stuck musically. We resort back to the same artists. The same songs. The same five minute guitar solo. We hear the same ideas, and they are comforting. An old t-shirt. We crap on radio stations for playing their same 100 songs, then we do the same thing with our iPod.

I’ve yet to meet Miho Wada, BAMM.tv’s artist featured on our live stream today at 3 PM (Pacific Time), but I am impressed with her for the simple fact that she’s not a stuck musician. She’s a severely talented, classically trained flutist. She’s traveled the world--Cuba, New Zealand, London, Japan--incorporating different theory into her playing and composition. She is what I want to think of when I hear the term “World Music” instead of Timothy Robbins’ character in the film High Fidelity.

Whether her music feels like an old t-shirt or not, I encourage you to try it on today. Your old music has pit stains anyway.
