Milly is a rock band from Los Angeles fronted by songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Brendan Dyer. Their sound melds together elements of classic shoegaze, slowcore, and lo-fi indie rock, coalescing into an intense, singular musical impression. Milly began as Dyer’s home recording project in his hometown of Bristol, Connecticut before finally taking its current formation as a live band in Los Angeles.
One year ago today MILLY released their debut album “Eternal Ring”, which Rolling Stone called “a blend of the woozy, guitar-driven vulnerability of Swervedriver and the noise-laden introspection of Nineties post-hardcore trailblazers Hum.” For the album’s one year anniversary, Milly have unveiled six demo versions of songs off “Eternal Ring“
demos recorded in 2019 and 2020
“The debut album from this LA-based duo led by Brendan Dyer is a potent ‘90s-steeped blend of shoegazer psych-rock, emo, slowcore and grunge, combining fuzzy guitars, muscular rhythms and lyrics of anxiety, hope and renewal.”- KEXP “a band that fuses the wall-of-guitar sounds of Hum and Catherine with early emo like Sunny Day Real Estate and minimalist beauty à la Belly, resulting in a warm bath of fuzzed-out indie rock that nonetheless balances the riffing with gentler moments of airy shoegaze”
