‘Milly’s Song’ from solo Eora/Sydney artist Milly McPherson is a soaring anthem that showcases her velvet vocals and passionate, expressive songwriting skills.
Sung over a dappling acoustic guitar introduction, the song slowly builds to a crescendo with a chorus of heavenly angels in the background. The lyrics clearly have an autobiographical content, expressed with a level of defiance and confidence, with an ebb and flow that is cathartic and sparkling. The production is as expansive as the bright blue skies over Australia: leading to a stunning denouement that is a pulse-quickening anthem.
There are clearly huge things in store for this rising artist. ‘Milly’s Song’ is out now and can be streamed or downloaded here.
Her bands mates in this expedition are Sunny Capron, Ben Gordon, Audrey Baker and Oliver Ashby, and an album is on the way. In the meantime, you can catch her live at the prestigious Lansdowne Hotel next week – details below.
