           █   traits as Mika, the eldest of four children,        █
           █   hails from a long line of singers, songwriters      █
           █   and incredibly talented musicians. Some say she     █
           █   started singing as soon as she could talk.          █
           █                                                       █
           █   ôMy father is a Jazz musician and plays multiple    █
           █   instruments. My grandfather on my fatherÆs side     █
           █   plays the guitar and both of his parents sing,      █
           █   though mostly in Spanish. Both my grandparents on   █
           █   my motherÆs side sang as well. My grandmother was   █
           █   an opera singer in many plays, and my grandfather   █
           █   is also an opera singer, and an amazing piano       █
           █   player. His parents were also singers. They owned   █
           █   a bakery in Italy and would sing while you picked   █
           █   out your goods. I only wish I could have seen it!   █
           █   Both my brothers are also multitalented             █
           █   musicians. Some nights we would all sit in the      █
           █   living room and play music like the Partridge       █
           █   Familyö she laughs.                                 █
           █                                                       █
           █   Like her parents, grandparents, and other           █
           █   relatives, Mika too is a very talented musician.    █
           █   She plays acoustic guitar, piano, violin, flute     █
           █   and congas. Mika says that ever since she can       █
           █   remember sheÆs always picked up an instrument and   █
           █   tried to play it.                                   █
           █                                                       █
           █   Mika says that it wasnÆt until high school that     █
           █   she became really interested in writing songs.      █
           █   She credits her mother with her skills as a         █
           █   songwriter. ôMy mother is the one who taught me     █
           █   music theory and how to structure a song. She       █
           █   would captivate me with the emotion she would put   █
           █   in a song. I wanted to write music that made        █
           █   people feel the way she made me feelö says Mika.    █
           █                                                       █
           █   As for singing, Mika says that sheÆs always sung.   █
           █   As a child she says that she often sang on her      █
           █   fatherÆs very own Jazz recordings.                  █
           █                                                       █
           █   In high school, Mika says that she often felt ôa    █
           █   little out of placeö when competing in school       █
           █   talent shows. She says that while other girls       █
           █   were singing songs by Whitney Houston and other     █
           █   popular artists, as she grew up listening to a      █
           █   lot of Jazz because of her father, she would        █
           █   often sing old Jazz classics like Summertime, and   █
           █   Autumn Leaves. ôNobody knew these songs, so I got   █
           █   made fun of a lotö says the southern California     █
           █   native, who now garners nothing but praise when     █
           █   she performs.                                       █
           █                                                       █
           █   Mika says that despite her roots in Jazz, she       █
           █   grew up listening to all kinds of music. She        █
           █   counts Aretha Franklin, Etta James, and Bonnie      █
           █   Raitt among her musical influences. Mika says       █
           █   that she also grew up ôreally admiring artists      █
           █   like Tori Amos, Sheryl Crow and Sarah McLaughlin    █
           █   because of their ability to sing and play.ö Today   █
           █   she says that she looks up to artists like Alicia   █
           █   Keys, Norah Jones, India.Arie, and John Mayer.      █
           █   ôAll of these people can hold their own, and you    █
           █   don't' exactly see them performing in their         █
           █   underwearö she laughs. ôI respect these artists,    █
           █   and I would like to get that type of respect as a   █
           █   performerö she says.                                █
           █                                                       █
           █   When asked about her own style, Mika says ôI        █
           █   would definitely say it sounds like a cross         █
           █   between Sheryl Crow, Christina (Aguilera) and       █
           █   Norah Jones. Sheryl because of that bluesy rock     █
           █   sound. She gets that because she's from the         █
           █   south. Though I am not, we share the same           █
           █   interests in Blues music, which is where Rock and   █
           █   Roll started from. Christina because we have        █
           █   similar vocal techniques. We both grew up           █
           █   listening to big voices like Mariah Carey and       █
           █   Celine Dion, so you can hear the similarities in    █
           █   our vocal style. And Norah because of the Jazz      █
           █   influence in some of my songs. Having grown up      █
           █   listening to a lot of Jazz, Mika says that          █
           █   someday she would love to make a record of just     █
           █   old jazz classics. ôI'm just all mixed upö laughs   █
           █   the southern California native whoÆs also written   █
           █   hooks for several rap and hip hop artists           █
           █   including one of rapper E-40Æs cousins.             █
           █                                                       █
