Mika Hary New Album EPK
"When Morning Comes"
"Mika’s distinctive and emotionally connective tone pulls you in,
and then her incredible sense of storytelling (both lyrically and melodically) keeps you close.
She is a rare artist who seems totally familiar yet defies category.
When I think of comparable artists (Bjork, Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush),
It’s not because she sounds like or is influenced by them -
it’s the fact that she has a similar sense of brazen originality.
It was an honor to work with her on When Morning Comes,
and I look forward to so much more to come from Mika, a truly singular artist"
- Matt Pierson, Record Producer (NYC)

For singer-songwriter Mika Hary, it is always about finding a way to combine her different areas of interest and expertise resulting in a sound that is deeply personal and heartfelt. Walking a fine line between the Jazz/World and Indie/Folk genres, along with her impressive vocal presence and range, Mika strives to create music that challenges your ears, yet aims for your heart.
Mika's love for jazz and improvisation, as well as her wish to be inspired and immersed in different sounds and colors, brought her to New York City at the age of 21. There, she received a scholarship to the renowned New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. As always, for Mika it has been about combining different paths: while being a full time double degree student (BA/BFA in Philosophy/Jazz Vocal Performance), Mika has managed to form her own band, with which she performed original compositions in several of the city’s best known venues and playing with some of the rising stars in the New York City music scene.
It was during those years in NYC that Mika began to form a sound of her own, a true genre-less mix of simplicity and complexity, arched together with her deeply expressional vocals, a signature voice that can soar in intensity as much as it can be sweet and soothing.
