★★★★ The Times
Low-Key - "Like a Dorset version of Neil Young’s Sugar Mountain, I Saw The Fair reflects on the melancholic loss of childhood innocence; Coming Undone is a simple love song held down by an insistent country rock riff, and the appeal is in the honesty. Millson sings about everyday life with homespun wisdom and his songs are relatable accordingly. (Significant Records)”
Peter James Millson’s gloriously melodic 2014 debut ‘Sweet The Love That Meets Return’ (produced by Danny George Wilson) drew critical comparisons with the likes of Paddy McAloon, Jackson Browne and Roddy Frame.
2016 saw the release of the self-produced, second, studio-album, The Red Café. Despite being enthusiastically home-made and, with hindsight, possibly missing the help of a credible sound engineer, the record got some terrific reviews and was a favourite that year, for many people. “I think one of the most beautiful albums of the year.” – Rock and More, Spain.
The album of phone/field-recordings, Mobile (“Strong on melodies and Marxist ideals.” *** MOJO), was the result of a harebrained scheme by Peter and producer Boo Hewerdine to use only straight memo recordings from a smartphone and came out in 2017 on Haven Records (HAVENCD20). A lot more of the writing for this album was at the piano, and plangent, ‘found’ chords were everywhere, as a result. It received a lot of great reviews and remains, for many, a much loved album.
2023 saw the release of the album, Faith In Good Fortune.
