Mimi by Peter Broderick

American singer-songwriter Peter Broderick shares his Mimi EP – a two-track release – featuring Mimi, a tribute to the musician’s late grandmother, alongside a cover of Low’s Laser Beam, as a tribute to the late Mimi Parker.

“I was asked by my family to play violin at my grandmother Mimi's memorial service. I wrote this piece for the beloved matriarch of our family. To my great surprise, when cousin John Doran heard it at the memorial, he was inspired to write an organ accompaniment. Meanwhile, another great Mimi passed away around the same time — the angel voice Mimi Parker of the band Low. I learned their song 'Laser Beam', and my sister Heather Woods Broderick was kind enough to sing harmony. With these two songs I bow in tribute to the great lost Mimis of this world.” — Peter Broderick
