MILCK's Debut EP 'This Is Not The End' Arrives Today

Today, Atlantic Records singer/songwriter and artist fueled by social change, MILCK has released her eagerly awaited debut EP "This Is Not The End," available via all digital music retailers and streaming services HERE.

Earlier today, MILCK performed her moving viral anthem "Quiet," on The Today Show. Watch the performance HERE. The new studio recording of "Quiet," was released in November as MILCK's "musical #METOO" (read MILCK's touching letter to her fans HERE). Inspired by the song's impact on the oppressed and survivors of all races, creeds, and colors around the globe since its initial release in January 2017, "Quiet" is available now at all DSPs while the powerful companion video can be viewed on MILCK's official YouTube channel. "Quiet" became widely known as the unofficial anthem of last year's historic Women's March On Washington and was recently featured as #1 on Billboard's "The 20 Best Protest Songs of 2017" in addition to being featured as one of the year's most influential songs in NPR's "Year In Music 2017" feature. Also launching today via Great Big Story, is an inspiring profile feature that showcases MILCK's journey this past year, especially highlighting "Quiet" and its worldwide influence. Watch the video feature HERE.

MILCK's EP release is joined by the unveiling of the visual for the recently released empowering title track, which features MILCK's longtime friend, the professional dancer and actor Kylie Shea, and can be viewed on MILCK's official YouTube channel HERE.

"The concept of this video came to me in a series of visions that flashed across my mind over the course of a few days," MILCK writes to fans viaInstagram. "The first visions were that of ravens soaring. I looked up the meaning of ravens afterwards, and learned that ravens are viewed as symbols of metamorphosis, change, and transformation in Native American cultures. I decided that ravens would be a perfect motif in this music video, because they are able to express my desire for humanity to change, transform, and evolve towards a higher existence- one of peace, integrity, and love."

This afternoon, in partnership with YouTube, MILCK will celebrate the release of her debut EP with a special performance and 2018 Women's Marches Kick-Off Panel which will feature a discussion with MILCK, Katherine Siemionko, (Women's March Alliance), Rebecca Minkoff (Designer, Activist), Krista Suh (The Pussyhat Project), Ting Ting Cheng (March On), moderated by Muslim Girl Magazine's Amani Al-Khatahtbeh. The event will be livestreamed directly from YouTube Space NY and can be viewed on Atlantic Records' official YouTube channel beginning at 3:30PM EST:https://atlanti.cr/milcklive.

Tomorrow, after a year of global impact made by "Quiet," MILCK will continue to play an active role in the all-important Women's March Movement by partnering with the nonprofit organization, Women's March Alliance, to perform "Quiet" during the Women's March on New York City. MILCK is scheduled to perform around 12:30 PM immediately following Whoopi Goldberg's speech. See HERE for a map outlining the location of tomorrow'sWomen's March on New York City. MILCK has also partnered with The Federation, an unprecedented coalition of artists, organizations, and allies formed to keep cultural borders open and show how art unites us, for Art Action Day, a free and open sing-along and self-love workshop taking place in the lobby of the historic Public Theater from 3-4 PM directly following the Women's March. On Saturday, January 27th, MILCK will perform at theHuman Rights Campaign's Austin 2018 Gala Dinner and Auction, which will bring together over 700 HRC members, friends, family and allies for an evening of celebration and inspiration.

Back in November, MILCK hit the road with Ani DiFranco for a string of select North American support dates. Next month, the powerful live performer will join the Australian indie pop singer-songwriter Amy Shark on tour beginning Tuesday, February 20th in Los Angeles, CA and culminating on Wednesday, March 14th in Boston, MA (see attached itinerary).

This past fall, MILCK released a breathtaking new rendition of "Ooh Child," recorded for the short film "Love Over Bias," the newest installment of Worldwide Olympic Partner Procter & Gamble's "Thank You, Mom" campaign. Listen to "Ooh Child" - also featured on her debut EP - HERE and watch MILCK's powerful performance video HERE.

Born Connie Lim, MILCK has spent much of the last decade crafting a series of acclaimed independent releases while tirelessly performing increasingly well-attended gigs around her native Los Angeles. Penned in 2015 with frequent collaborator Adrianne Gonzalez, "Quiet" proved MILCK's worldwide breakthrough, a cathartic pop anthem for people of all races, creeds, and colors who have suffered and survived in the face of trauma, trial, and tribulation.

In January 2017, MILCK traveled east to the momentous Women's March On Washington where she created the #ICANTKEEPQUIET Choir of DC, a 25 member group of diverse female vocalists. Together they united to deliver seven a capella flash mobs, surprising fellow marchers throughout the day with remarkably soulful renditions of "Quiet." A video of the flashmobs was captured by the award-winning director Alma Har'el and quickly went viral after being posted on her Facebook page, drawing over 14 million plays in just two days. By week's end, MILCK had appeared on TBS's Full Frontal With Samantha Bee - performing alongside the GW Sirens and Capitol Blend - while also earning massive media attention from the Washington Post, NPR, Refinery29, BuzzFeed, AP, Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair, and many more. MILCK has spent the past several months performing and giving keynote speeches at major events for various organizations including the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, Women In The World, Women Moving Millions, and more.

MILCK shared the news of her partnership with Atlantic Records directly with fans in a handwritten letter posted on her social media platforms. The letter, which explained her heartfelt decision, was shared wider in her hometown's LA Weekly, alongside a beautiful profile feature. Widely acclaimed for her distinctive blend of pop and provocative, poetic lyricism, MILCK has drawn attention for tracks including "Devil Devil," featured in an array of TV projects including FOX's Lucifer and E!'s The Royals. "Quiet" was also featured during a pivotal scene centered on sexual assault in this past summer's highly rated season finale of Freeform's critically acclaimed series, The Bold Type. In addition, MILCK starred in a popular installment of KCET's original music series, Artbound Presents Studio A. The complete episode is streaming now via KCET.
