“you are forgiven - go to sleep"

“Baby K’s Lullaby” was writtenand performed by Mirabai Kukathas, engineered by Thaddeus Turner, and mixed by Matt “Sabyu” Sablan.

“Kukathas’ songs remind us that romance is not the end and that the things our brains try to convince us of late at night are not always what is true. Kukathas argues that loving people — whoever they are, in whatever ways they come into our lives — helps us through the bad days. You are never as unloveable as you fear you are, even when you, like Kukathas, struggle to find enough forgiveness to fall asleep.” - Abigail Boyer, the UW Daily

“baby k’s lullaby” is the first single off mirabai’s upcoming third album “everybody still loves you” - the final installment of her trilogy of albums on the intersection of fear and love :)

Meet Mirabai

Mirabai Kukathas is a storyteller. A playwright, guitarist, and (maybe most importantly) a singer/songwriter, she loves nothing more than telling an absurd story with an honest emotional core. The songs of this genre-blending “floral folk goddess” are characterized by vulnerable lyrics, walls of harmony, collaboration with friends, and a refreshing blend of irony and sincerity. Mirabai was born and raised in Seattle, Washington, although she also grew up in her mother’s native Malaysia. She's garnered such honors as the Robert Bloch Award for Music, placing at MoPop's SoundOff, being named one of the Gates Foundation's 100 Local Changemakers, winning the Young Playwrights Project (twice), and being chosen for the Seattle Opera's Creation Lab. Since 2020 Mirabai has released 10 singles, 2 EPs, and 2 full-length albums - executing everything with a level of honesty that is equal parts hilarious, heartbreaking, and hopeful. Her art is an act of healing; a confusing celebration of her culture, community, identity, and life. Come to one of her shows and say hi!

so many tunes to listen to! make a day of it :))
