The Sound Stage: The Mirror

This chill and psychedelic original band claims Pink Floyd is their favorite, and while the influence is strong, they have a unique sound that is all their own. Stare into The Mirror, but beware - you may be surprised by what you see looking back at you.

Searching, reflective, haunting are words that can describe The Mirror's elusive sound. They've come from all different parts of China and now reside in Beijing. You might find them in low-key watering holes, peaking the interest (and perking the ears) of listeners and seekers of truths unknown to eyes.

The Mirror is:

Xiao Feng – Guitar/Vocals

Xiao Meng – Lead Guitar

Xiao Tian – Keyboards

Zheng Xin - Bass

Li Fan - Drums

The song featured in this episode is called Zai Lushang, or “On The Road”

They do not have any upcoming shows at the time.

If you would like to buy their CD, find them on QQ: 30901326.
