The Sunday Music Drop is a weekly radio series hosted by the KQED weekend news team. In each segment, we feature a song from a local musician or band with an upcoming show and hear about what inspires their music.
Mia Pixley is a cellist and vocalist based in Oakland. In this episode of The Sunday Music Drop, Mia talks about her song “Where You Stood” from her album “Spar Suite,” and how motherhood shaped the song’s creation.
Pixley will be playing with her trio, including Ian McArdle and Isaac Schwartz, at Albany’s Solano Stroll outside the Abrams Claghorn Gallery at 1 p.m. on Sept. 11, 2022.
