Rising singer-songwriter Millie Turner shares new single ‘Eye of the Storm’ – the title track to her upcoming mixtape. 

Written after a 24-hour plane ride to the other side of the world, ‘Eye of the Storm’ is framed by flitting electronica and a thunderous bassline. Understated verses break into a big, thrilling chorus that not only shows off Millie’s gorgeous vocals but her euphoria inducing take on songwriting. “The entire process of writing it was a blur amongst illness, homesickness, heartache and jet lag, but for me, that’s the beauty of the song,” she says about the track. “‘The Eye of the Storm’ is a focus point amidst the storm where everything around you feels out of control and chaotic, which is what I wanted to capture in the urgency of the drums and the chorus.  There’s something beautiful about chaos when you have that focal point of calm that you can grow from.”

‘Eye of the Storm’ is the 19-year-old’s second release of the year. It announces the upcoming arrival of a new mixtape on March 19th 2021, and serves as a beautiful introduction to Millie Turner’s nuanced world of pop.
