Milkymee

about

Milkymee is Emilie Hanak. She's French, but lives in Sweden at the moment. She's 24. She's a folky singer. Unique. Her voice is a kind of grungy pretty thing. “The debut record of Milkymee sounds like something far different than a debut; the songs are minimal and traditional incorporating mostly a single guitar and voice this does not leave the tracks lacking any emotion instead it leaves the listener with a sense of rawness, and the sound has more references to the history of rock than singer/song writer-albums usually have. French Emi Hanak aka Milkymee has a very special voice that is not typical of singer/song writers, she has a voice that belongs in a smokey rock bar where the dimly lit stage has a single old rangly chair, and you as the listener are placed in the very far back of the bar trying to pin-point weither Emi is angry, distraught or filled with some sort of emotional mix of elation and sadness. Emi’s voice has a range when placed together with her music that is unparalleled. Milkymee’s songs are not of the regular brand of singer/song writer fare, the guitars are layered and sparse, yet they still tend to lie out a nice rug to pave the way for her voice. The chorus’ are placed into the background of each track flickering and giving the songs a sense of depth structure. The melodies stick with the listener directly, though they are short, usually no longer than a couple of minutes, they get to you and leave you humming them all day. Often singer/so
