Mia Silvas on "Onder Invloed"Onder Invloed is a project by music journalist Matthijs van der Ven, from The Netherlands. The project title is Dutch for ?Under Influence?, and the idea started in the summer of 2007, while reading Bob Dylan's "Chronicles". Already, bands from all over The Netherlands and abroad are lining up to be part of the show, and Mia Silvas was one such artist asked to be involved.
