Camille Miller- Neverland

First video off of our new album Fight or Flight.

Shot in Sao Paulo, Brazil December 2016.

Cozy and brightly coloured, musical things

I have a STORE....For real.
Just look to the right....Move your eyes over the screen ALL the way to the right and you can FINALLY pick up all of those cool things I was talking about, way back when I was trying to do a Pledge Campaign...Many of you supported me on that, but sometimes you don't always INITIALLY make the goal you strive to achieve....Sometimes it takes a little longer...But luckily, I am a strong believer of  'Last Man Standing- Wins' and on that note, I am a very strong 'stand-er'.

Merry Christmas everyone!!!

Love You all, Love me Back!

Building Steam...

So many amazing new shows coming up over the next few months, that I start to get lightheaded thinking about it...Songwriting is flowing and building up pressure just like a Steam Engine...

I am ready to POP...EXPLODE....All in a very good way!
I am focussed, energized,happy and intrigued.
I am in love.
I am grateful.
This amazing new album, that I had the chance to record here in Sao Paulo, is finally up and available to Pre-Order on all of your usual sites...( Amazon MP3  iTunes CDBaby )

Fight or Flight was recorded here in Sao Paulo Brazil during the months of May and June 2016. Produced by Caetano Malta, who has worked with manyof Sao Paulo's alternative artists  Lucas Santtana, Guizado MoMo and more..
The list of musicians that make up this recording, opened my eyes to the diverse independent Brazilian scene in more than one way...I also got to be a part of their tight knit humour, their LOVE of eating LUNCH and their addictive general happiness...Its all rubs off and I hope you hear some of this in the music.
Thank you to Caetano Malta of Bambini Studios and Bruno Buarque of Minduca Studios and to my family for their undeniable support...There is noway on earth I could still be playing music without their support...I PROMISE ONE DAY....ONE DAY...I will make some money at this....It may not be until I record that Blues Covers album, but nonetheless, ONE day it will happen... ( Thank you to Corrie Dark who took these photos, while visiting us from New Zealand!!!!)

Nothing like waking up Saturday morning, bed full of kids (ours, don't worry), coffee mug in hand, computers on lap, and a lovely e-mail from The Canadian Online Music Mag- The Revue.

Liking me to Singer/Songwriters  Liz Phair and Juliana Hatfield is ALRIGHT by me, even if it is in reference to that fact that I am rather UNKNOWN...lol

Our new album Fight or Flight will be out for worldwide release November 30th...We will release a single September 15th!!!
Check back here for more info!

Happy Saturday everyone!

2 steps back, 1 step forward...

Hey everyone!!!

It's been a longtime since I have written here...I also find that I say this a lot!- I need to change my life patterns I think...

Anyways,

I had launched a Pledge Music Campaign and it was coming to an end this week. Unfortunately, even at 73% raised, I knew I wouldn't make the rest of the goal by the 21st of this month. I have cancelled it.
I was very impressed by all of the help from the wonderful people at Pledge Music, and also impressed with all of you who were willing and able to pre-order my new album Fight or Flight...

Sometimes you just gotta quit when you are ahead! (I wish I could put this phrase to use in ALL aspects of my life...lol)

I am very very excited though to have completed the album.

After sending links of the finished tracks to Rick Salt (Producer of pretty much most of my previous albums) and Nick Haggar (writing partner for most of my previous albums and 2 of the songs on this new album); having their positive feedback has been a great energy booster for me.

Caetano Malta has sent the new album to his Brazilian publicist here in Sao Paulo. She has confirmed that she too loves the album, and has sent it off to a couple of trusted journalists. We need to see if they think it's worth trying to release and independent recording with an English singer here in Sao Paulo...NEVER A DULL MOMENT!

'Onwards and Upwards' as a good friend has said to me many times.

For all of you who had pledged for an album or T-shirt, Vinyl or Stickers, Handwritten letter, or SKYPE concert...I will STILL be able to do all of that for you...Check back here as I perk up this website and move my ancient body into this century of Online Shopping ability!!!.

Much Love,

Camille Miller

No stranger to 'falling on my face'

Hey peeps and peepers,

It's been a while since I have updated this blog.
To be honest, I just forget...There are now so many different places you can 'update' happenings, that by the time I have blabbed on one social media platform, (sadly mostly Facebook)I have taken up all my blabbing energy for a week or so...

I have just finished recording an 11 track album here in Sao Paulo.
The album has been sent of to Brian Lucey of Brian Lucey's Magic Garden Mastering for the mastering part.
This is new for me as for the last 3 recordings we have chosen Brad Blackwood from Euphonic Mastering  I am nervous and very excited at the same time...
I chose a different team this time, due mostly to the fact that this new album is going to be so very different than the other ones I have been a part of before.

The album will be called Fight or Flight and is produced by Caetano Malta , (who you can see by this video, is a wee bit of a Moog/Synth fan), and mixed by Bruno Buarque (who also, along with Caetano tour and record with Lucas Santtana as well as record and tour with Karina Burh)
The list of musicians on this album cover the spectrum of alternative Independent Brazilian musicians...I am just happy I got to tag along.

This coming Tuesday, I will be launching my second Pledge Music Campaign...I am really hoping that some of you lovelies who supported my last album, will be interested this time around, as well as a bunch of new faces that I have had the pleasure to meet.
I have COOL treats for you pre-orderers including REMIXES of a couple of songs...I admit to NEVER really being cool enough to have remixes before, and infact, I amy have missed the boat entirely...But nonetheless, I will have some....Maybe I can be remixed into someone's JOGGING music....

Speaking of.

So 2 weeks ago, I was entered into a 10KM NIGHT race, here in Sao Paulo.

I was so excited to be a part of this(along with about 1200 other people)as I prepared, trained AND even worried about what I was going to wear to this run, and which shade of lipstick goes best...I mean, I was ready to ROCK THIS!

In my own history, whenever I get so excited about something in my head, that I actually daydream about massively excelling in it...SOMETHING always goes wrong.
Call it KARMA, or something else...But I can assure you, I usually end up falling flat on my face.

This time was no different.

At exactly the 2KM mark of the race, I turned
around, beaming, possibly smug, and said to my husband, who was just behind me, " 2k, LOOK HOW QUICK THAT WAS!!!"
Turned forward and promptly fell flat on my face.

For those of you who have seen me run....It takes a while to get going, and MUCH longer to stop.

So I skid along the pavement for a few seconds,with my hands nowhere in sight...Just my left knee and my face to buffer me....


Two weeks later my face is on the mend...I may have broken something in my nose, but to be honest, this nose has seen its share of pavement before, so I am chalking it up to 'Life Experience' and am looking into SPEEDWALKING.


As of today, I do look normal. I don't want to leave anyone scarred with these images...But you can imagine the looks I got at the school pick up and drop off!!!!! haaahaaaaaaa


Much love,
Camille
