about
Milou Moon is Emily McGill's femme-fronted, bilingual (French/English) dream psych project based in Melbourne/Naarm (AUS) originally from Chicago.Em came of age in Chicago's DIY scene and moved to Australia for love in 2016. She'd been building her musical universe in Naarm for a few years, drawing inspiration from Australia's iconic psych scene, when she met collaborator Leigh Fisher (DOPE LEMON) in 2024. They've just produced Milou Moon's debut record together, with contributions from Simon Mavin (Hiatus Kaiyote) and Adam Halliwell (Mildlife).'Like an Adderall,' out October 9, is the first single from this new body of work, adding dimension to the lush, ethereal, high energy Milou Moon sound. Em spends a few months of the year back home in the states, and regularly tours there as well as in Australia. In addition to being a French citizen, this tri-hemispheric life has helped Em create a unique blend of Chicago indie DIY, French whimsy, and Aussie psychedelia.Milou Moon has released 2 EPs, sold out headline shows in Australia and the US, supported iconic Aussie acts like Velvet Trip, Harmony Byrne and Deep Sea Arcade on tour, and has played at a number of festivals including Hopkins Creek (AUS), Bloomfield Festival (AUS), and Postock (USA).
She is signed to ORiGiN Music in Australia and Shuga Records out of Chicago in the US.

write up in the chicago reader
" McGill has released two haunting, seductive EPs with lyrics in English and French, layers of guitars and drums that converge in slow-rising waves of melody and texture, and a dreamily romantic sound that recalls the lush psychedelic pop of the 60s. "
