today during this very autumnal season we look at a very autumnal 2002 album from DIY bedroom pop progenitor/(former) Olympia Washington K Records twee-adjacent indie songwriter/musical cousin and collaborator of Phil Elvrum’s: Mirah’s (aka Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn) ”Advisory Committee”
we talk K Records and the 90’s Olympia music scene, about Mirah’s background as a DIY artist, and her being one of the few visible and celebrated queer artists in the indie space at a time when there wasn’t a lot. and of course... we talk about the music. which we both find to be generally likeable and fun, with occasional moments of brilliance.
we also get into Liz’s brief twitter feud with a few Pitchfork writers that happened a century ago and the increasingly dire situation for touring musicians.
