While many others in the Taiwanese music industry may know Mia Min Yen aka 'Taiwan Mama' for being a powerhouse supporter of exporting Taiwanese music globally, to me she's a treasured long time friend and mentor. As one of my oldest friends in the music scene, Mia has taught me so much about what it means to support other women in music, not only through words, but action. This is a quality of hers that has allowed her to be adored by many of the globally established acts she works with such as 9m88, Sunset Rollercoaster, Elephant Gym and ØZI. This is the same quality that has given her the tenacity to hold Taiwanese Waves, a festival dedicated to showcasing Taiwanese music in New York's Summerstage for five years running now. We finally caught up in Taiwan, and after a decade of friendship, it's feeling like a full circle moment up in here. Welcome Mia to the fluffle podcast!
