Mimi Gilbert is an independent artist who has spent the better part of the last 10 years living, touring and creating music in Australia and New Zealand. Previously based in Melbourne now back in Ojai/ Los Angeles, the Californian born has toured most recently with Julia Jacklin and Angie McMahon and shares a similarly deeply-crafted, folk-inflected approach to their songwriting.

Hitting the road with their band this summer, playing songs from their debut record “Grew Inside the Water’ and many from their upcoming record ‘undrowning.’

Mimi says that music is what saved them. It was her life raft back to feeling and a teacher for learning how to take up space and play with life’s tension rather than hide from it.

Sometimes the songs mimi write are so quiet you have to push your ear towards them, sometimes they are a raging river of loud emotion and sometimes, just a little tune to make us laugh.

Having got their start playing music at age 15 busking on the streets and train stations of the USA west coast, mimi finds themself feeling most alive when singing for real breathing humans. Whether recording music in a studio or playing live, mimi’s hope is to simply follow the feeling.
