New Music Friday Special: Lisa Miskovsky & Kanon

We’ve got a special feature today. These two artists are celebrating their birthdays today!

Lisa Miskovsky is a Swedish singer/songwriter that many may have heard of thanks to the EA game Mirror’s Edge where she sang the game’s theme, Still Alive. This year, she entered Melodifestivalen, the Swedish Eurovision selection show with the song Why Start A Fire. She’s through to the final tomorrow (Saturday 10th March) so we’re wishing her all the best with it!

And our second birthday artist today is Japanese classical-crossover artist and pianist Kanon (not to be confused with Kanon Wakeshima!). Many may be familiar with her songs for the animes La Corda d'Oro and Guin Saga. Last year saw the release of her album, A New Story, her 5th in her native Japan but the first to be released worldwide! The album saw her collaborating with Final Fantasy maestro Nobuo Uematsu
