A storyteller at heart, Mia Stegner views music as an avenue to ask questions, seek answers, and ponder both personal and collective pieces of the human experience. In her mind, no topic is too big or too small to explore, from the inner workings of her neurodivergent brain to the ethereal appeal of bath time. "Mia’s style is decidedly unique – it’s something like musical theatre blended with the grit of indie rock and the long-form musings of artists like Regina Spektor or early Laura Marling" (Stereo Stickman).

Mia’s background as a musician is extensive and eclectic; growing up, she gained a musical foundation from singing in choirs, listening to music, taking piano lessons, and teaching herself guitar and ukulele. She first began writing songs in middle school, as a way to express herself and grow skills as a musician and writer. In high school, she began sharing her work on YouTube; in college, she began releasing music on streaming platforms as an independent artist.

In addition to creating her own music, Mia loves opportunities to help bring other artists’ visions to life and works as a freelance lyricist, songwriter, and backup vocalist — from podcast theme songs to informal birthday gifts, she has completed 200+ projects for various clients. Between her personal and freelance work, she’s written hundreds of songs.

Her other creative endeavors include Cléo's Collective, a creative services & sync company; Germinates, an indie music blog; Rabbits Under the Shed, an animated musical series; and Mia's Mini Makings, wearable art and mini pet portraits.
