‘Overstimulated’ is the highly anticipated new album from Canadian-born, Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter, and musician Miranda Joan. Co-produced by multi-instrumentalist, and bass extraordinaire CARRTOONS, the release features offerings from Sly5thAve, Hailey Niswanger, Jake Sherman, Kristine Kruta aka Lil Kruta (The Eagles), Clairo keys player Danae Greenfield and Grammy-winning bassist Ben Williams.
Simultaneously leaning into and letting go of the excessive and overstimulating, the ‘Overstimulated’ LP sees Miranda’s developed songwriting and storytelling shift into a space of contemporary Jazz and Soul. An accumulation of years of growth and development, both personally and professionally, the album was created closely alongside CARRTOONS over several months.
Overall, underpinning every aspect of ‘Overstimulated’ is friendship. Moments of acceptance and appreciation sit alongside moments of recognition for the the beauty, resilience and importance of friendships, during both joyful and difficult times. “There is as much pain in this music as there is joy, but the connective tissue of it all that stands out most to me now is perseverance. We keep going, we keep moving and we keep learning. These were my lessons, these were my challenges, and these were my joys.”
Includes unlimited streaming of Overstimulated
via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

lyrics
She knows me
She knows me
She knows me
She knows
Before makeup
Before boys
Before all the things that weigh us down
All the silly noise
Before the doubt that came crashing In
Between the cracks upon our skin
When we were children just playing
Oh she knows me
She knows
Before the body
Before the clothes
Before everything we learned to hate that wasn’t good enough
Before the ocean of opinions came to rise
Before we lost ourselves behind the cruelest eyes
When we were young just trying to fit in
Oh she knows me before
Everything
All of the time we’ve spent apart
All of the tears and broken hearts
All of the lessons we’ve had to learn
All the ups and downs and all the crazy turns
And now we’re grown ups just hanging in
But she knows me
She knows
Before the career
Before the goals
Before all the things that wouldn’t be quite the way we’d hoped
Before the money started ruling the game
Before the illness was given a name
Before we lost someone we loved and would never be the same
And when I’ve lost myself again
I’m grateful for a friend
Who knows me
Who knows me
Who knows me
Who knows
Who knows
Who knows me
Before everything

A special, special talent.
The music and melody Cleo Sol is so healing to me.
Her music is inviting, and her spirit is receiving.
