Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn is a singer-songwriter from Portland, Oregon; she's released many albums on K Records, the anti-corporate home of the Pacific Northwest's most influential independent and uncerground acts. Mirah has collaborated extensively with The Black Cat Orchestra as well as The Microphones/Mount Eerie's Phil Elverum, who also produced many of her recordings.

Mirah's music tends to run toward fuzzy lo-fi bedroom folk, an aesthetic mirrored by many of her label fellows.

Advisory Committee is her second album, released on K in 2001. It was the first album introduced to me via a friend's mixtape that featured the song "Monument."
