About this item

Hot on the heels of Echoes Of The Dreamtime, Miranda returns with her fourth full-length studio album, Existential Beast, eight songs of 'Psychedelic Chamber Folk Rock' finding the diamonds in the dust of everyday life and the relationships within.

Miranda is an American singer-songwriter from San Francisco. She is the daughter of Ted and Teresa Richards, stars of the underground comics revolution and the goddaughter of legendary cartoonist Robert "R." Crumb. Kirk Hammett of Metallica taught Richards a few songs on guitar and then she went on to work with Joe Firstman, Suzanne Vega, Tim Burgess, Tricky, Good Listeners and the Jesus and Mary Chain. Miranda was a member of the Brian Jonestown Massacre and she sang the hit Anemone on their debut album.
