"You’d expect this album to genre-swing from one place to another, and that’s exactly what it does, most impressively... Beauty is often born out of chaos and that’s certainly the case with this charming record."

Such lovely words from the fine folks at Holler this morning!
"Milly Raccoon is one of Americana’s best kept secrets. The fiddle player and singer has been eccentrically reimagining bluegrass, jazz and old timey country as feminist anthems for a world on fire ever since she first appeared on the scene."
Watch the video for "That Girl I Left Behind Me!” Milly's new album is available on July 7.
Milly Raccoon's new single "That Girl I Left Behind Me" — out this Friday — is her lyrical take on an ancient Sean-nós Irish tune, entitled 'An Spailpin Fanach,' Gaelic for 'The Wandering Laborer.'"
"Brilliant string playing, long winding old time jams, and a timeless song about the girl with the rosy cheeks and the curly hair that was left behind characterize this work by Milly Raccoon," says Americana Highways.
The new album 𝘍𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘔𝘺𝘳𝘳𝘩 arrives July 7.
Milly Raccoons’s take on Nashville is all over the upcoming Frankincense and Myrrh, arriving July 7. The album exists in the Nashville of now where messages of spirituality and liberation are more vital than ever.
Milly delivers her songs with a gauzy, dream-like, and poignant touch that is so easy on the ears (think Nora Jones or Iris DeMent) that it is easy to forget that Milly is telling us something we need to hear.
