Millie McGuire

Millie McGuire, 19, is a singer from Chapel Hill, North Carolina, whose unforgettable, precise, evocative alto is equally at home in any setting. Fellow Chapel Hill native, Chris Stamey, first heard Millie sing in high school, and asked her to sing demos for him, and a mentorship and collaboration was born. Millie sang lead on Stamey’s jazz radio play, Occasional Shivers, which aired aired on Christmas Day 2016 on over 100 public radio stations nationwide. In 2017, Stamey produced her first solo album at Modern Recording to limited edition release and is producing her forthcoming album, Yours, Millie McGuire which can be previewed at http://milliemcguire.com/
