Indigenous singer-songwriter, Miiesha has had a massive week.
On Monday, she was part of the first group of artists awarded a financial support package via Levi's® Music Relief Fund in partnership with BIGSOUND. Tomorrow, she'll release her debut album 'Nyaaringu'.A strong, proud Pitjantjatjara/ Torres Strait Islander woman, Miiesha (pronounced My-ee-sha) seeks to use her R&B/ soul-laced voice and music to bring people together, helping educate and inspire.
'Hold Strong' fits this mantra and is the final taste of this new album. "We had started working with IAMMXO, who produced my whole project 'Nyaaringu', and he sent through a few beats to write to and this one instantly stood out," Miiesha says.
"Having moved away from home, I was starting to see more of how the media portrayed my people and my community and felt I needed to speak on it.
"Parts were recorded everywhere – from lounge rooms in the city, to a caravan on a farm to a studio, as I made little changes along the way. It's a fun chorus to belt out live!"
Here, Miiesha shares her love of gaming with her 5 favourite titles of all time.
