Chris Milam
So, I am taking my first listen to the "Tin Angel" EP by Chris Milam. It kicks off with the driving, melodic pop-rock sounds of On My Way, a song that's one part contemporary pop and another part Big Band, big horn section, throwback to days gone by. There sure is some catchy stuff here as Chris belts out "Get down, singing my song, keep on rolling all night long."
Next up, Only One, an expertly-crafted 3-minute pop song with driving drums, a great guitar line and more way cool horns to bring it all home. Chris slows it down on the beautifully-arranged title track that feature some great harmonies by Moriah Harris.
Chris definitely shines on the track Shine (yes, I know that sounds like a bad cliche!), a powerful ballad with another great melody and one sweet organ to set the mood. "Tin Angel" really pops at the end with the ultra-catchy Don't Give Up On Me Know, another timeless 3-minute pop song that could have been written in any era.
Listening to Chris Milam leaves you feeling like you have just experienced a fresh new voice with a welcome appreciation for the music that has come before him. It all blends together seamlessly in a way you are sure to enjoy. You owe it to yourself to give Chris Milam a spin. I know I'm glad I did!
