Agnès Milewski has been a fixture on the Austrian singer/songwriter scene foryears. Four albums and one EP released have brought the gifted singer andpianist to extensive concert tours throughout Europe. She skillfully combinesthe singer/songwriter tradition with pop music, sophisticated lyrics, andunusual instrumentation in her music, happier to be hopping genericboundaries and subverting expectation rather than nailing her colours toanyone stylistic mast. Whether it’s in her touching ballads alone at the pianoor the rock number with her live bandA Mile Of Sky- she wanders throughthe same plaintive piano soundscapes as Tori Amos and the morecommercially friendly end of the Kate Bush heyday as easily as she deliversan alt-folk vibe or a haunted pop atmosphere, always crowned by her crystal-clear and irresistible Voice.
