▓░░█ ░ RELEASE NOTES ▄▄▄▄▀▀▀
░ █ ▀ ▀▀ ▀▀▀▀▀▀ █
█ Mika Coleæs ability to sing, play instruments, █
█ and write music are all no doubt inherited family █
█ 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. █
█ █
█ Mixed up or not, these days, people of all ages █
█ and from all walks of life are feelinÆ Mika Cole. █
█ Her big vocals and range has her being compared █
█ to powerhouse vocalists like Mariah Carey, Celine █
█ Dion, and Christina Aguilera. █
█ █
█ Written by Mika and Produced by Raphael DiGiorgio █
█ of Diamond Dreams Music, Mika ColeÆs self-titled, █
█ debut EP, "Mika Cole" is an infectious blend of █
█ pop, rock, soul and jazz tracks. █
