My musical journey began in my nana living room, at her piano, which strangely she could’t play. In lack of any real toys it became my favourite toy and I would tell stories .. All the good people lived in the high notes and all the baddies and danger in the bottom ones.. Hours of fun.. Not for the neighbours..
I have always love to play and create melodies. Growing up I became very passionate about films and was part of a local theatre group in London.  When the chance of an agent came at 17 I took it.. I worked as an actress in various tv and film projects for 8 years and whilst loving being part of the creative process of making a film was never quite comfortable in my role within it.. I didn’t feel particularly passionate about being an actress nor that I was especially good at it but felt lucky to be privy to such a wonderful world and working along side such talented artists.. I began writing music in my spare time (lots when you are an actress!)and managed to have my pieces used on a couple of commercials and short films.. One of the commercials wanted lyrics and so I wrote a song called Beasts which they ended up using..I then did a cover of a smiths sing that was used on a commercial which led to being signed to Universal. I felt more comfortable doing covers as at that stage I didm/’t feel I had found my voice musically and I loved the arrangement aspect of covers.. The parts with no singing were always my favourite and I felt no personal investment to the songs as I had not written them.. So freedom in a way..
After that I took some time to write and find my sound and I reconnected with film and with film scores and the beauty of music used narratively and emotively.. These tracks are a reflection of that and I have enjoyed writing them tremendously..
I started writing under the name Slow Moving Millie as it became a bit of a joke within my friends that it had taken me quite so long to work out I should be writing music., I was, apparently, rather slow in the uptake and  the last to realise.
