ABOUT
Hazel Mills is a Bristol-based musician/songwriter who has toured the globe across multiple genres, with artists including Christine and The Queens, Florence + The Machine, Dave Rowntree (Blur), Goldfrapp, Birdy, Hannah Peel and Fraser T. Smith (Adele, Stormzy). Her Classical background, pop sensibilities and passion for 1960s American minimalism and analog synths feed into both her performance and her writing.
Alongside her touring commitments, Hazel is working on new solo material following the recent self-release of well received EP ‘The Embrace’. The record, created in collaboration with producer/musician TJ Allen (Bat For Lashes, Portishead, Anna Calvi), draws influence from Musique Concrete, 80s pop, and the music of Japanese pianist Ryuichi Sakamoto, fuelled by a desire to find peace within the battle of nature vs modernity.
