Siwa’s Minimalist Indie-Folk is an Oasis

<“Up until more recently, I’ve thought of myself as someone who receives help, someone who’s maybe a bit weak,” she says. But as the years have gone by, Kang has become an influential figure in her own right. Electronic musician KIRARA is one person who’s been touched by Kang’s songs. “We’ve had a lot of coincidental meetings at different shows, but she [KIRARA] was too shy,” says Kang. “But one day, she DMed me, saying that my music has been helpful and comforting for her, and that she didn’t want to feel shy around me any more.” That message led to a friendship and eventual collaboration, with KIRARA adding her glitch-inflected style to Siwa’s recent single “distance to breathe.” For her, Kang receives as much inspiration from those who listen to her music as she gives. “It makes me want to live better,” she says.>
