Canadian chanteuse AMY MILLAN is best known for fronting the indie rock act STARS who have previously achieved local interest and presence via strong Triple J airplay. Millan's charming girlish vocals have also appeared on albums from BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE, and JASON COLLETT.
'Honey From The Tombs' is songbook of romance and reflection and took three years to record. Features performances by members of Broken Social Scene among others.
This is a lonesome and introspective set of country songs. A beautiful voice for any fans of GILLIAN WELCH, JENNY WATSON and MINDY SMITH.
INSIDE PULSE "This is probably the best country album out this year" ...EYE WEEKLY "Accessible and catchy, with both upbeat hoedowns and mellow songs for the campfire. Millan uses country's broken heart to tame indie-rock's bravado and writes undeniably pretty songs." ...NOW MAGAZINE "in terms of sheer vocal ability, Amy Millan's remarkable voice steals the award...a note-perfect mezzosoprano that flutters between girlishly flirtatious and huskily lonesome melancholy." ...TRIPWIRE "With her debut album, Amy Milan has set herself apart from her Stars and Broken Social Scene peers and established herself as an extraordinary songwriter" ...ALLMUSIC (((( ... MUSIC-CRITIC " Amy Millan is one of Canada's best and most versatile vocalists"
