Biography- Milly Evans


Milly Evans, born on 12th November 1990 is an English recording artist, actress and fashion designer. In her teenage years, her musical tastes evolved alternative pop but after she had abandoned school, she focused on her music and concentrated on improving her performing skills. Afterwards, she created several demo songs and, near the end of 2007, she published videos on youtube and made some of her recordings public.

A contract was signed with the label Regal Recordings, as the views on youtube rose to tens of thousands. In 2009, she began to work on completing what would be her first studio album and its first mainstream single "Anything" reached the top position on the UK Singles Chart. Her debut record, “The Fear”, was well received on the international market, selling over 2.6 million copies and brought Allen a nomination at the Grammy Awards and MTV Video Music Awards.

Her second major album release, “Wake up Darling” saw a genre shift for her, having more of a mainstream pop feel, rather than the alternative influence. The album debuted at number one on the UK Albums Chart and the Australian ARIA Charts and was appreciated by the critics, noting the singer's musical evolution and maturity. It spawned the hit singles "Don’t Be Shy" and "Secret Door", popular mostly in Europe.
