Near Strangers

I almost went to bed

without remembering

the four white violets

I put in the button-hole

of your green sweater

and how i kissed you then

and you kissed me

shy as though I’d

never been your lover

– L. Cohen

Polynomialsis the conduit for the creative projects of Karissa Fyrrar and her variables. For Seasonal Activities, she will be joined by long-time musical partner Math Rosen and movement collaborators Jen Hum and Sarah Reid.

Performer Profile: Mirian Kay

Mirian Kay

“I’m always looking to invite others into my story.”

Mirian Kay is a Syrian/Jordanian-Canadian singer-songwriter and guitarist. She loves to tip her hat to music as a community-building tool. Not only is music-making a collaborative effort, but singing at its most elemental—words and melodies—is a means of joining people, experiences and journeys. Everyone has stories to share, Mirian notes, and artistic expression makes communication that much more pleasurable. Mirian Kay fuses genres such as Jazz, Pop, R&B, Folk, Electronic, Reggae and World music together to form her unique sound.

“I am never afraid of making mistakes and falling flat on my face, because that’s how the learning begins and when the magic happens.”

“Mirian Kay’s genre, her voice and talent alone makes her a real treat to watch.” -Live In Limbo 

“It was surprising to see how easily Kay moved around the stage, while strumming her acoustic. And when she put it down, you couldn’t look away from her dancing on stage.”      -The Scene Magazine
