MIIRRORS

What this episode covers

Motion And Picture is a cinematic soundscape of honest lyrical introspection and reactiveabrasion, a personal timespan of disillusionment, resolve, and return of hope. Waves of cascading textures blur the sonic lines between synthesizers and guitars a la My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive as Shawn Rios's atypical rhythms anchor the songs while Brian McSweeneyascends beyond Andre Miller, Patrick Riley, and Dmitri Rakhubas's expanding colors.What began as a chance encounter on an airplane between McSweeney and Rios 22 years agogrew into a decades-long friendship which ignited the inevitable musical partnership that formedChicago's MIIRRORS. They reverse-engineered the usual process of becoming a band byprioritizing album creation over live performance while at their own pace, morphing the duo intoa cohesive quintet of seasoned multi-instrumentalists along the way­ veterans Rakhuba, Miller,and Riley completed the lineup, and they evolved the collective sound quickly, momentarilytrading the stage for the tracking room.While recording, the group began self-releasing singles just two months before the pandemictook its toll on the music community, but not before the public took notice of their imaginedversion of Jeff Buckley's rare 1997 four-track demo        MIIRROR'S Info  https://miirrors.bandcamp.com/ www.pravdamusic.com https://miirrors.bandcamp.com/ https://www.facebook.com/miirrorsmusic/ https://www.instagram.com/miirrors_music/?hl=en https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1XT5uhpV0ujNCA-_66_2yw https://open.spotify.com/artist/2SwDo6SQHqyEiiZv0M0K9K
