MILOU MOON

Milou Moon’s first two singles, ‘Drawn In’ and ‘Spin Cycle’ have received lots of love and support from a range of music and radio outlets across Australia, the US, and beyond. The release of Milou Moon’s debut single ‘Drawn In’ saw them sell out their single launch gig at Nighthawks last November. The ‘Trails to Centre’ EP (March 22) swirls from dreamy to grungy and back again while capturing a time in Em’s life during lockdown when music was the primary vehicle to unlock a crucial sense of expansiveness.  

Em’s songwriting draws inspiration from the classic psych movement of the 60s and 70s as well as modern psychedelia (Melody’s Echo Chamber, The Lazy Eyes) while crafting her own distinct and captivating sound. Milou Moon is Em McGill (vocals/guitar), George De Silva (Drums), Sam O’Neil (synth, lead guitar), and Jevaan Waldron (Bass).

ROMANIE
