Los Angeles, CA (Top40 Charts/ Glass Onyon PR) The LA music scene is buzzing about the debut CD by eclectic singer/songwriter/producer Mimi Page, whose unique style blends ethereal dreamy soundscapes with melodic, unique vocals and has been compared to the likes of Portishead, Enya and Fiona Apple. Her full length debut album 'Breathe Me In' featuring co-producer Warren Huart (The Fray, Aerosmith) was released on February 14th on Gonzo Multimedia's new electronica label, Hunter Records, and is distributed in the US through Entertainment One. Described as "a potent mix of sultry down tempo numbers, emotional pop-tronica, uplifting piano pop and thought provoking ballads", 'Breathe Me In' is a rich, well-rounded album. Mimi Page's songs have been widely received by the electronic music community and have charted #1 on Amazon.com and #11 on iTunes for her single "This Fire." Both songs "New" and "
Gravity" have charted Top 10 on radio stations Sirius/XM Chill
Radio and Soma FM Lush and she has 8 additional songs in airplay on over 20 different stations worldwide.
In support of Mimi's new CD she will be performing several select engagements opening for the legendary classic rock band Jefferson Starship. Her song "New" grabbed the attention of Jefferson Starship's management who heard the song on Sirius/XM Chill
Radio and invited her to open for the iconic band on several dates on their 40th Anniversary Tour. "It was surreal to me to be asked to open for them," Mimi told Westside Today. "I mean, I'm just this girl who writes songs in her apartment who just happened to get on the radio and I get this call from Jefferson Starship's manager who tells me, 'I specifically played your music for them and they want you to open for them,' and I was just honored and thrilled and taken aback." Jefferson
Starship was so impressed with the LA songstress, band leader Paul Kanter was quoted saying, "I drink Mimi Page Kool-Aid."

"My Vanilla Sky" employs a somewhat droney background with sparse keys, otherworldly atmospherics and orchestral flourishes as Page's unbelievable vocals guide you through what feels like the most languid dream you've ever had." - Brian Palmer - Glide Magazine
"Throughout the course of this EP's (Lullaby For The Lonely) six songs: you hang on every word, relish every vocal and let the echoing, otherworldly sounds wrap their arms around you in an embrace you don't want to be freed from." - StereoSubversion.com
"An incredible talent!" - JULIA CUNNINGHAM (Program
Director Sirius XM "
Chill")
"A goddess of down tempo dream pop!" - MICHAEL GAIMAN (Creator of "Freezing Man Festival")
Los Angeles based Mimi Page has been writing music since she was five years old. The pretty, ebullient, piano girl hails from a family of classically trained musicians and has a gift for arranging and writing and also producing. While every recording you hear on her EPs 'A Lullaby For The Lonely' and 'Fire', including the track "
This Fire", which went viral and debuted on MTV's 'The Real World' and subsequently placed number 11 on iTunes worldwide for "Best Electronic Single", has been produced and engineered in Page's own apartment. For her new album 'Breathe Me In', Page turned to veteran producer/engineer Warren Huart and Swing House Recording to further develop her sound. Page comments: "There's only so much you can do in your own apartment. When my songs hit the airways and I started licensing to film and television, I realized that I needed to take my production elements to the next level. Warren has an incredible track record for producing piano-driven artists such as the Fray and I knew he could take me where I needed to go. He understood my sound."
"I worked with the Fray,
James Blunt, and am about to go work with
Aerosmith and I love that like these consummate professionals Mimi is also a proactive artist. I love that she's self-reliant and always writing new music…what is paramount for me, however is the song, the song is the key…Mimi's songs are like soundscapes, or emotional statements and that makes it exciting," says Huart. It should come as no surprise that Page is in demand. She has collaborated and performed with some of the top rising producers of the Electronic Bass
Music community including Goldrush, Gladkill, Phrenik, Elfkowitz and ill-Gates. Page is gearing up for the upcoming
tour starting mid-March where she will open for Jefferson
Starship as part of Paul Kantner's Jefferson
Starship All-Star Gala and will also headline some shows. Though technically considered down-tempo, electronic, dream-pop, Page's personal taste and range in music is incredibly eclectic - she also covers Joy Division and
Chris Isaak - but it is her ethereal voice, melodic orchestral arrangements and thought provoking lyrics that will leave you yearning for more.
