MILKYMEE

Emilie Hanak is the sweet songwriting talent behind Milkymee, an ever-evolving and unpolished French artist based in Paris.
For the past 7 years (2002-2009), she was living in Sweden where she has composed her first album.

In 2006, Milkymee put out Songs For Herr Nicke, an excellent although intimate record on Tsunami-Addiction.

While Milkymee’s voice combines raw intimacy and chalky confidence, her melodies and arrangements are both voluptuous and ethereal.
After many years spent in the wilderness travelling throughout Europe and writing good songs, Emilie Hanak is now back in France for a while.

Her second opus, To all the Ladies in the Place, With Style and Grace, – named after a Notorious B.I.G track – is an EP dedicated to a series of female figures close to her heart: her mother, the American radical feminist Valerie Solanas, the girl next door, her childhood lost friend Nathalie Brown, her friend Marie-Astrid Michel, her girlfriend, and other women she likes or dislikes.

In 2009, she has composed and written the original soundtrack for Domaine, a feature film by Patric Chiha, starring Béatrice Dalle and Isaïe Sultan. Domaine was part of the Official Selection of the 2009 Mostra Internazionale d’Arte Cinematografica, Venice, Italy.
This movie has been selected by famous director John Waters as the best movie 2010.
