Miko is a singer/songwriter who loves to freestyle new music ideas. The daughter of two musically talented parents means the apple didn’t fall too far from the tree. Born and raised in Washington, D.C., Miko realized her gift for music at a young age. She remembers her family harmonizing in Grandma’s kitchen uptown. Her mother would sing the lead in her soft alto voice and everyone else would fall in place in the background. Grandma’s kitchen is where she found her roots and her love for music. Now we have the pleasure of introducing to you and to the world – Miko.
Realizing her gift at a young age, she often leaped at the opportunity to participate in youth choirs and school talent shows whenever the opportunity presented itself. Singing songs of inspiration, R&B, Hip Hop, Pop, and Gospel, Miko was later nicknamed “Songbird” by her peers. Her ability to bring forth a beautiful falsetto and crescendo with such power sets the mood for any occasion. Taking in every moment, she started accepting requests to sing at weddings, churches, and special event ceremonies, even performing a memorable rendition of the National Anthem.
Although she loves to sing, songwriting is her greater passion. “Being able to bring my thoughts to life is a beautiful thing”, says the artist. Miko is inspired by other artists such as Mariah Carey, Keri Hilson, Kelly Rowland, Neyo, Usher, Chrisette Michele, and Mary J. Blige to name a few. Pursuing the music industry is something this talented artist has always wanted to do. She has that natural raw talent that some would only dream of having. So, it would only be fitting to call her the next up and coming artist to look out for.
