The Satellite: Miranda Glory and Laces, L'FREAQ, and Flavia

Miranda Glory sounds like a name where the individual behind that name would be singing opera solos at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. If you check the singer out, you'll actually find someone who sings pop tunes with a dash of dance beats. As I was listening to her set on a recent Thursday night at The Satellite, I found myself thinking that she could easily fit in at a fashion show, providing some musical entertainment during runway breaks.

Her set was a mix of singing and providing tidbits about her life. Those tidbits included mentioning that when she woke up and logged onto Facebook that morning, her friendship anniversary was her former boyfriend (ha ha, Facebook will be happy to know that someone is still logging into their site, and well, it is nice to know she still stays friends with her ex-boyfriends).

Though that was a negative for the day, she was also celebrating the fact that the boot for her broken foot was finally removed. She said of it, "The worst case is always true. Like the broken ankle that my friend said was just a sprain, but then the doctor said it was broken. I know that is random, but it related to this song."

That song happened to be "Hypochondriac," which provides an interesting combination of lyrics that explores her relationship anxieties and how it intertwines with her hypochondria. I see the song as showing someone who when in a relationship suffers both emotionally and physically, which prevents her from fully connecting with the other person.

Flavia

Miranda Glory wasn't the only singer that I caught at The Satellite. Opening up that night was Flavia. This was my third time catching her set. I figure saw her just a little over a year ago at Hotel Cafe. I do say she is improving in a rapid pace. She's someone to keep an eye on.

L'FREAQ

L'FREAQ and Laces had solid sets. L'FREAQ has those jazz vocals that just draws you in. And Laces has power vocals that got her onto The Voice. She opened her set with vocals that killed. And like Miranda Glory, she also talked about her former relationships, but she carried a nice long knife in those lyrics.
