One pandemic later, between days/nights spent sweating out piss, vinegar, and trackloads of tears in the studio, and a rigorous rehearsal schedule, Miranda and The Beat are monstrous in both sound and vision, and ready to meet the world.Their live reputation (and for being neither pushovers nor scumbags) led to collaborations with such childhood idols as The Mystery Lights and Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.Soon there was the release of their 7” single Such A Fool, on Jack White’s Third Man Records. Soon there was the release of their 7” single Such A Fool, on Jack White’s Third Man Records. Their live reputation (and for being neither pushovers nor scumbags) led to collaborations with such childhood idols as The Mystery Lights and Nick Zinner of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Originally a duo of then 21 year old guitarist/vocalist Miranda Zipse and 21 year old drummer Kim “The Beat” Sollecito, the pair added a full band and quickly became known for their tireless,wheel-on-fire live sets driven by Miranda’s captivating stage presence, vocal prowess, and her pyrotechnic (but never indulgent!) melodically slashing guitar work. Arriving in New York City in 2018, the band have, through songwriting & performance, proved themselves an essential spark and spearhead to a scene of new blood rockers, bringing a much needed renewal of energy to the New York City scene. Garage, soul, punk, classic rock… pick your poison the band has plenty to spare. Drawing from traditional rock music (The Dirt Bombs, The B-52’s, MC5, and Ronnie Spector) Miranda and The Beat operate from a clear eyed appropriation of the greats and healthy disregard for blame. Miranda and The Beat are a Rock and Roll band, w/ all the term might entail.
