A San Francisco stepmom born in Harbin, China 36 years ago, has set the U.S. recording industry ablaze with speculation that she might be the next big thing.
Her gifted songwriting and angelic voice have caught the attention of one of the industry’s most legendary producers, Narada Michael Walden, and other industry veterans.
Narada is an iconic producer known throughout the industry for producing massive hits for artists like Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand, Mariah Carey, and Aretha Franklin.
«As soon as I met Miist, I wanted to work with her,» he said. «She is truly a beautiful soul who lights up the rarest gems around her,» the legendary producer said.
In addition, «she can smoothly transition between genres while maintaining a level of elegance and decorum,» Narada said, «which is rare in today’s music scene.»
The famous producer asked to produce her first album. Miist said yes.
«To be honest, when writing this album, I didn’t have a theme in mind,» said Miist, «letting my mind go free to feel whatever is real,» she said. «I wanted all the emotions to be authentic,» she insisted.
Seven years ago, Miist, an accountant, was diagnosed with potentially terminal liver cancer. Following a grueling surgical procedure, she found solace by strumming an old ukulele and singing old Chinese songs like «Love Confession.»
Later, during COVID, Miist was determined to teach herself how to play the piano, providing her with a way to transform her thoughts into «meaningful» songs. Slowly, the magic and music of Miist began to emerge.In August 2024, working with Narada, Miist released her first album, The Songs from the Living Room, which she says was a way to express her feelings and heal from a lifetime of trauma.
