Milliepede
Hello! I’m Millie, a singer/songwriter currently living in Meanjin (Brisbane). I aspire to be a working musician, engaging in live performance, composition, and production of my individual work. A central part of my creative expression lies within vulnerability and truth. Through my lyrics, and the medium of song writing, I process my own experiences and thoughts in my art. I am an advocate for the importance of mental health awareness, and my individual struggle with anxiety and depression is a strong and central theme within my own music. My main goal through writing and performing music to others, is to find connection and articulate thoughts and feelings that are otherwise difficult to explain on their own. Music, as it is for many others, has been a formative aspect of my life and at times, has saved it. I hope you can find something valuable within my music, much love <33
