To say that the career of Seattle baritone Vince Mira has followed an unusual trajectory would be more than a bit of an understatement. Discovered busking at the famous Pike Place Market by entertainment gadfly Chris Snell in 2005, within a few short years Mira would perform live on both The Ellen DeGeneres Show and Good Morning America - at the age of fifteen.After being discovered by Snell, Mira honed his performance skills at Seattle's Can Can, blowing away audiences with his both startlingly spot-on Johnny Cash covers and compelling originals. As fate would have it, Mira would go on to recorded his first release with John Carter Cash at the Cash Cabin in Nashville. Cash Cabin Sessions was released in 2008, and an eponymous follow up - again recorded with Cash - was released the following year. During this time Mira played hundreds of shows across the country, including stops at the main stage of the Sasquatch festival and Austin City Limits.Then, as sometimes happens, life got in the way. Mira found love, a wife, and children, and decided to leave the road behind. Mira, though, was born a writer, and immersed in music from an early age. At the same time, Mira began tentatively playing the guitar again, just for enjoyment, writing just to write, from a place of pure creative expression.A song he wrote for his wife is titled "True Love", and it is a beautiful, shameless declaration of unbounded affection.Mira started piecing together more poems and melodies, and with his family's full support and his manager's persistence he returned to the studio. All original music written by Mira, El Radio is the sound of an artist intent on redefining his legacy. El Radio is a portrait of a life steeped in music, an artist's heart worn proudly on his melodic sleeve. Hard to pin down, it's both Country and Spanish, mornings in his mother's kitchen, nights on stages across the country. Both road-worn and hearth-warmed, with El Radio, Mira is finally, truly, home.
