Nicole Millar is ready to unveil Excuse Me, her much anticipated debut album, on June 1st.
It’s the product of two years of life, a whole lot of growth and a rollercoaster of emotions. Excuse Me charts everything from admitting your faults and owning your sh*t, to wild nights with best friends and the bittersweet parts of love, relationships and all that feelsy stuff.
The album features Nicole’s hit singles “Signals” and “Blindfolded” as well as her new 80s-inspired release “Gimme A Break”, an anthem-in-wait for women who want to go their own way and won’t be tied down (can relate).
Nicole wrote on every song on the album, working with producers Sable, Dan Farber, Hoodboi, xSDTRK and Kyle Shearer to bring her words to life in studios between Sydney, Stockholm and L.A. Every song is a piece of her history, the work of a gal who’s found her sound and is sure of herself. For Nicole, the vision was to create music that’s “pop, but not”.
“I can’t help it, but I write about boys and love and problems,” Nicole explains. “But I’ve had so many EPs where it’s mainly just me writing about boys, so I wanted to write some songs about other fun stuff too. I’m confident with myself on the album, and even the love songs are a bit cheekier … I had a lot more fun with these songs.”
Things have been non-stop for Nicole Millar since she broke through as the voice of Peking Duk’s ARIA-Winning, triple j-conquering, three times Platinum hit ‘High’ in 2014 and stepped out as a solo artist.
Her debut EP release, 2016’s Tremble, went Gold in Australia and amassed a cool 8 million spins on Spotify. As well as scoring massive radio play with ‘Signals’ and ‘Blindfolded’, Nicole’s been picked to tour with Troye Sivan, support SZA and fit in sets at Splendour in the Grass. 2018 is sure to be her biggest year yet!
