"Another rainwashed Wednesday evening at the old Troub threw up this particular gem. Aussie songstress Miranda Barber plays both the audience and the piano like a Broadway nightclub hostess in a Sinatra film. The rich, cigarettes-and-whisky harmonics in her voice give her songs a seductive mix of the vampish and the innocent.... the mournful energy of her solo piano and voice is perfectly suited to the intimate confines of the Troubadour. Her songs are narratives - occasionally bizarre, sometimes comic ... Barber has the rare gift of projecting intimacy, seemingly singing for herself, but at the same time opening up a peephole into her personal world." The Small Fish Crew, reviews a show @ The Troubadour - 24.05.06 Miranda harks from the sun and sand kissed bays of the Mornington Peninsula, a stone's throw from Melbourne, Australia. In 1999 she came to the thick of London's feisty east, which has been her home for the past nine years. Here she discovered a world of madness on the theatre and music scene and since then has been thrashing about in it, for the instant pleasure of it, and because she can't think of anything else she'd rather be doing which also affords her the right to say what she likes! In London, Miranda has got her fingers wet here and there, collaborating on live and recording projects with various producers and artists including Dave Dix, Sam Semple, Charlie Winston, Tom Baxter, Max Greenwood, Vashti Gleave, Vonnie Debrett and Raison D'Etre. In September 2007, out of 600 songwriters, Miranda won the first ever singer/songwriter showcase on www.slicethepie.com by public vote, and received £15,000 to make her first album. Produced by Charlie Winston, the album has been recorded live at Goldtop Studios and Mi7 Studios in London, and looks to be released in end of June 2008. "I'm in love with a bloody good song, in telling a story and hearing them told well and exploring the voice that tells them. I'm into all the cracks, the gurgles, the lip smackings and the sounds of experience behind a voice delivering the news."
