The record is almost here!
It really will be available in a few days! The Pieces Maxi-CD is available starting April 5th! The LP has a tentative release date for June!

Where the #&@! is the record?
Well, we are still waiting for Projekt to recover from the Black Tape record release and tours. The Pieces Maxi CD is ready to be printed and will be available as soon as there is money to do so. We can't offer any exact dates but, I would think it would be in the next month. Watch this link:

It's done?!?
Yep, the record was finished earlier this month. However due to Projekt's busy release schedule, you'll have to hold on until November. The "Pieces" Maxi-CD will be released then, it will feature two songs from the album, an alternate mix of another song from the album...and an exclusive bonus track. The LP will follow in January. Expect some changes around here soon....

The recording is coming into the home stretch!
Its getting closer and closer all the time...Regina is just about done with her vocals, and almost all of the guitars are done. We still have alot of frilly little extra things to do to make it more fun sounding. Oh yeah, and that mixing thing. But it keeps getting closer all the time!

The recording is ongoing at home...
some of you have been bugging us to do an update...you know who you are...so...we've been recording for quite awhile now...we've taken what we did at the studio and brought it home for some further tweaking. Its shaping up quite nicely, and should be the best record we've done. I know you all have been holding your breath forever, but, keep holding it until early this summer...

We are also playing a show in town at the BetaBar on Feb. 14. It you can't wait to hear the new songs, you now know where you can hear them.

Look at the pictures section for some recording pr0n pics.

We keep writing...
We nearly have all of the songs for our next record written...its certainly taken a long time. We've had a few setbacks in our personal lives to keep this from being a timely process. But, what we have is nearly completely written, so that we can just whip in down onto a recording. We have recorded a few demos of this ourselves, but have ultimately come to the conclusion of going to record this record in Panama City, FL at JJ Crews's Boogie Tracks. The place has a nice sound and nice equipment, and we are serious about making this album great. So its only natural we do it this way. Musically, the songs are different than anything that we've ever doen before, but there will still be alot of familiar Mira left. We start recording here on the 9th of August. Unfortunatly, this means the release date is has been pushed back.

Yes, we are still here.
We have been busy recording for an upcoming release.
Here's a few words from Regina about the tour:

hi! this is regina from mira. i just wanted to share a few thoughts about our recent tour that took us around the country... well, the short response is that it was absolutely wonderful!! as a longer response, i will say that because it was a wonderful experience, it was a great success in my eyes. we left on august 15th, and it took a few days of emotional adjustment to ease into what would for the next 3 weeks be our life on the road. there were 7 of us (thank you julie todd and dave hatos) in a pretty damn comfortable (thank god!) conversion van we bought (at a great price) the week before we left, and had all of our equipment and luggage in a U-haul trailer hitched to the back. we met a lot of really nice people along the way -- generous people that opened their hearts and homes to us and made us feel right at home wherever we happened to be staying.
and the shows, they were an experience unto themselves. it took awhile, but i was finally able to accept the fact that every show was not going to necessarily be my "best" ever, but that each one was a learning experience. the best i could do was to give everything i had each time we went on stage, and hope that the energy and emotion carried through to the audience. what an amazing experience it is to be submersed in the activity you enjoy most in life -- for over 3 weeks my only job was to keep myself healthy and perform the best i could each night on stage. and let me tell you, once you've tasted that kind of life, it is hard to go back to the "other" life (i.e. day job). and yes, i was in post-tour depression for quite some time afterwards.
we learned a great deal about each other and ourselves. i wouldn't trade the experience for anything. plus, we had the most kick ass show the night we returned home to tallahassee. i was amazed at how comfortable i felt on that same stage on which i had once felt so insecure and out of place. i guess 3 weeks of playing shows will do that to you! we all came home friends, too, which came as a surprise to some, i think. as for now, we are taking a break from playing out and are back in the "studio" to write more songs and do some recording. i look forward to going back out again though...
thank you to everyone who attended our shows, drove how ever long to see us, bought merchandise, and simply took to the time to say hello and let us know you were out there. kind words go a long way, and kept our spirits up whenever they started to sag from the weariness of the road. thank you again for helping us make this a reality. until next time.....
regina & mira

Ok, so we've been back for two weeks.
I've been holding off on makeing updates until I get the mailing list typed in. Well, I'm too slack to get that done in any amount of time. So, for now, here's a note from Tom about how the tour went....this will go out on the Projekt Email list tomorrow:

Hello, this is Tom from Mira.
Its been about two weeks since we've been back from our tour, and, even though it was alot of work and stress, we all miss being on the road. The responses we got from the audiences were always good, even at places where nobody had heard of us. There was always at least one person who came up to us and said how much they enjoyed the show. Now, for many "indy" bands, that isn't too common. We must be doing something right! These comments are nearly reward enough for the effort.
We played all types of venues...from very tiny and awkward bars to giant, rock-star theater stages not unlike the stage at Projektfest. We even played in the backroom of a small record store. Crowd size varied from 5 to 400, but was never a letdown. Do I sound overly optimistic? Really, if you get to know me, I'm a HUGE pessimist and complainer, but, really, it wasn't a letdown. So, it must be the truth if I put it this way.
God, touring with LoveSpirals was completely awesome. As a Projekt fan before Mira was around, I've always wanted to hang out with Ryan Lum and shoot the shit. After the show in Seattle, we all got the chance to chill out and have a few drinks and talk. Ryan and Anji are super-cool people and we all had a great time hanging out together.
We also got to hang out with Audra for a night in Phoenix. Now, those guys do know how to throw down. Heh...I'd like to spend more time with those guys. We got to meet them at Projektfest, and got to see them in their own element in Phoenix. We'd never seen Audra play as a complete band, and they are much more intense with the full setup.
Anyway, the tour went off without incident, and we got to play some really great venues and meet a ton of cool people, not to mention friends and family. The people who were especially cool were the ones that let us stay at their houses. I gotta give some shout-outs: What up Jodi, Matt and Justin in Houston, David and everyone in San Antonio, Audra in Phoenix, Matt Davidson in LA, Cedric and everyone in Portland, Amanda and roomates in Seattle, SLC, Mom Davidson in Chicago, Mom and Dad Sosinski in Myrtle Beach!!! Thanks a ton!

The Tour is coming.
We are playing alot of dates around the country. Look here for more info: tour

Projektfest was really fun!
All of the bands played great shows. It was really cool to meet and party with everybody. It was nearly exhausting! Oh, and, we've had enough Chinese food that anybody would want to eat for a year.

So, we have another show coming up:

06/15/02 Atlanta, GA -- The Earl -- w/ Martyr & Pistol & Skating Club

Our tour has been postponed a few weeks, so that it will be in August/September...and it may be long enough to include some midwest dates...more soon

If you would like to book us, send an email to:

Man, Projektfest is this Friday!
I remember hearing about Projektfest while listening to Love Spirals Downwards at a friend's house in 1996. It was far away, in Chicago...1000 miles too far from Tallahassee. That was just before Mira even began as a casual living-room jam session. I never thought I would actually play it.
But here we are, plane tickets in hand, rehersing for Projektfest. Whoa...

If you don't already have tickets, they can be purchased at the door. The show is at the Trocodero in Philedelphia.

Hello - this is Regina!
I just wanted to thank everybody who has purchased our CDs, come to our shows, and expressed their positive support through the many emails we get. They really do bring us a boost of confidence, and we thank you for the time and thought that goes into those messages. We are really excited about our upcoming tour along the east coast. We have a lot of shows packed into a short amount of time (and a lot of miles!!). We are looking forward to playing shows in different cities and for new audiences....it's still hard to believe it's actually happening! Thank you again for the continuous support. We really appreciate it, and we hope to see you up the coast!

So, we are about to go on tour...see you soon...

We played Atlanta on the 20th. Thanks to everyone who came out, especially the ones who drove a long way. Sorry that we ran out of Apart CD's. We didn't anticpate such a demand at the show, we will have lots more when we come back on August 1st when we start our tour in a about a week. We will be playing all different songs at this show, so please try to make it...

Last Sunday we played in Jacksonville with Faith and Disease. Thanks to the few that came out! Since then, we've been hanging out with F&D. Really cool people! And amazing performers! They sound just like their cd! Tonight we play with them at the Cow Haus here in Tallahassee....should be a good time....

We have lyrics for apart! Find them at the lyrics link.

Also, we have shows coming up. See us in Jacksonville July 1st at Jack Rabbits and in Tallahassee on the 3rd at the Cow Haus. Both playing with Faith and Disease.
