With a stunning vocal tone and the ability to catch your attention from the very first note, Miller Roberts’ sound is one you can’t forget easily. Making her way back into the scene with her first release of the year, ‘Voice In My Head’ is 4 minutes and 30 seconds of pure bliss.
The Australian songwriter calls on the likes of Lucy Rose and The Paper Kites as just some of the influences behind her music, and audibly resembles the crystal clear purity of both Phoebe Bridgers and Maggie Rogers. Taking on her own approach to acoustic folk, and adding a sprinkling of soft alt-pop, Miller’s anecdotal songwriting is beautifully introspective and thought-provoking.
“You’re the voice I hear in my head. For better or worse, even in the loudest room now, I can’t drown you out”
The single’s airy quality is carried by Miller’s dainty vocals, layered with her accompanying soft echoes that steadily ebb and flow. It’s hard to believe the track was made without the use of any autotune or quantising, as Miller’s raw vocals are perfectly controlled and flawlessly executed from start to finish. Her honest and authentic intent is communicated exquisitely.
Performing under the moniker of Miller Roberts, 25 year old Millie Robinson only began releasing material back in 2020, and has since tackled her musical career at full speed. Making a return after her 2020 project ‘Square One’, Miller has now comfortably nestled into her own honeyed brand of folk-pop that undoubtedly deserves all of our attention.
As she continues to share her message with the world, Miller is an artist you don’t want to sleep on.
