 “The natural heirs to The National and The Antlers” **** Guardian
“The Brooklyn quintet’s debut is a brooding, tinny-synth-driven soul-pop delight” The Sunday Times

‘Halfway’ is the stunning new single from Brooklyn based quintet Milagres.  It typifies their highly accessible dreamy alt-rock full of emotive pop hooks complimented by front man Kyle Wilson’s incredible falsetto.  It’s also one of the many highlights from the band’s much lauded debut album ‘Glowing Mouth’, released in January 2012.

In 2009, having grown stale kicking around in the NYC music scene, lead singer Kyle Wilson took off to the coldest, most remote part of British Columbia to find some space, rock climb and recharge. However, while scaling one of the remotest peaks he fell, resulting in a serious back injury and months in hospital.   Initially, the injury was bad enough that Kyle thought he might have to leave music behind entirely, but slowly he recuperated and during these long days of recovery, inspired by a new sense of vulnerability and renewed passion, he returned to his song writing. 

Upon recovering he headed back to New York with a batch of songs and regrouped with Fraser McCulloch (bass, vocals, keys), Eric Schwortz (guitar, vocals, percussion), Chris Brazee (piano, keys) and Steven Leventhal (drums, percussion) and set to work on what would become the album Glowing Mouth.

Sourdoreille est d'abord un média d'humeurs et d'actualités musicales créé en 2006. Certains diront qu'il est pointu, d'autres, carrément mainstream (la honte, quoi). Certains ont autre chose à foutre et savent que Sourdoreille promeut la scène émergente tout en adorant les têtes d'affiche. Si la techno qui casse des murs, le hip-hop du futur, la chanson française avec de vrais textes qui déchirent et la pop culture en général ont tendance à éveiller vos sens comme nous, sachez qu'on en a par kilos. Le soutien à ces musiques passe par de l'actu, des interviews, des concours pour aller en concert et en festival gratos, des études, des quiz tout ce qu'il y a de plus intelligents, des séries thématisées, des podcasts, des soirées irrégulières sur Paris.

Sourdoreille est aussi une société de production vidéo. Il faut juste ajouter Production après Sourdoreille pour connaître son nom. Habile, hein ? L'activité du volet vidéo se passe dans les salles de concert et les festivals de France et de Navarre. Notre collectif a couvert plus de 30 d'entre eux, les gros comme les Vieilles Charrues, le Sziget, Dour, les Eurockéennes mais aussi des plus petits comme Astropolis, Baleapop ou Nouvelle(s) Scène(s), par le biais d'interviews, de blind-tests, de sessions acoustiques, d'extraits de lives et de concerts intégraux. Nas, Iggy Pop, Alt-J, Arctic Monkeys, Vitalic, Laurent Garnier, Metronomy, Devendra Banhart, Massive Attack, Wu-Tang Clan, Interpol, TNGHT ou Paul Kalkbrenner, ils sont tous passés devant nos objectifs. Sourdoreille Production est aussi à l'origine de documentaires et de séries de sessions acoustiques.

Sourdoreille est surtout une zone où l'amour est maître et un collectif rassemblant 22 journalistes et vidéastes.
