As MIRANDA LEE RICHARDS prepares for the release of her Nettwerk debut LIGHT OF X (February 10, 2009), the revered singer and songwriter has announced a new residency whereby she will perform with her full backing band every Tuesday in February at Spaceland in Los Angeles (1717 Silver Lake Blvd Los Angeles, CA 90026).
On LIGHT OF X, MIRANDA teamed with producer/engineer/mixer Rick Parker (Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Von Bondies) who also contributed the electric and twelve-string guitar arrangements. RICHARDS and Parker assembled a top-notch group of players including Eva Gardner (Mars Volta, Tim Burgess) on bass; main drummer Keith Mitchell (Mazzy Star); Ben Peeler (Wallflowers, Shelby Lynne) on pedal steel; and Josh Schwartz (Beachwood Sparks) on guitar. The 13-song offering is highlighted by its first single "Early November" as well as preview track "Life Boat," released last year in England as a vinyl single via Sonic Cathedral and which subsequently received airplay on Indie 103.1 FM in Los Angeles.
Fans can get an early sample of LIGHT OF X as MIRANDA has released THE EARLY NOVEMBER EP, available now via iTunes and marking the first time her music has been available on the site. Click here to view:

In video news, MIRANDA has tapped director Piper Ferguson of Oil Factory/Lodger Films to helm the video for her haunting first single "Early November." The clip--shot in locations throughout Los Angeles, including Griffith Park--incorporates MIRANDA's bohemian edge into a modern take while channeling the surreal-style of Warhol's The Factory. Expect to hear news of the clip's debut soon. To listen to "Early November," visit:
