After a 14-year hiatus, Miko Marks has spent the last few years making up for lost time. Her early career as a country singer brought critical acclaim but also a series of industry execs who didn’t think they could market her to their audiences. In 2021 she re-emerged as a “monster talent” according to Rolling Stone, drawing on the full scope of her musical and cultural roots, and has quickly become a fan favorite at festivals and venues all over the country. With a vintage sound that deftly blends Americana, blues, southern rock, and even gospel, her powerful voice and warm, soulful spirit literally bring every audience to its feet. She follows up Our Country (2021), Race Records (2021 EP), Feel Like Going Home (2022) and its 2024 deluxe version (feat. Buddy Miller, Tré Burt, Melissa Carper…) with a blues album coming in 2026.
