Small Increments, by Amelia Wilcox

Small Increments

by Amelia Wilcox

supported by

Remi Russin Millie’s brand of thoughtful, ethereal, feminine dream pop is back on display, this time with a heightened sense of maturity and surety that really makes this record shine.

meditative and smart, small increments stopped me in my tracks and sends me into deep contemplation several times over on each listen Favorite track: Try Me.

baeradburylistening In the world of musical instruments, the voice is one of the most expressive. In the world of vocalists, Millie is one of the most expressive.

The interplay between Millie's vocals and her minimal, lo-fi instrumentals result in songs worth leaving on repeat. Favorite track: Leftovers.

1.	Try Me 04:20	lyrics	buy track
All that I want to do Is hold it outside of myself And show it to you All that I want to say Is caught my throat and I can’t Clear it away Try me I’m mediocre Try me I don’t have any Thoughts left Try me I’m a rollercoaster Try me I know I’ll be My best, yet I’m the distance from the pen and ink I’m the dust beneath the kitchen sink I’m the laughter at the funeral I’m a puddle in your palm of snow
2.	White Coat Syndrome 03:22	lyrics	buy track
I am waiting at the blood draw I am looking at the ceiling Acoustic tiles, walls are papered And I’m thinking of the needle I start walking to the chair now Say I’m nervous been a while Relax the muscle close the eye lids It is over just as soon as it begins I build things up like something scary It’s a habit and I’m wary That I’ll miss some of the beauty If I keep on acting like a little kid I am putting on my coat now Pull a hat over my head I want to tell you that I’m happy It’s with you I get to live I am heading back to our place Feel the sunlight on my skin Think of how I want to slow time cause It’s over just as soon as it begins
3.	Leftovers 02:16	lyrics	buy track
Heating leftovers tonight It’s a Tuesday mood Take the recycling out And I pace there room Flowers sent overnight To the wrong address You take it across the road As I soon suggest Cold rush of air inside When you come back in Red in your cheeks appears On your warming skin I think on How I feel tender When you Return To sender Return To sender
4.	Times it by Two 01:58	lyrics	buy track
Worry’s like a seed I planted You know it when you see it I try to water it all day long You tell me it don’t need it Each time that I think about it I times it by two Each time that I think about it I times it by two Don't hold on Let it go Let it go with the sun
5.	Easy Does It 03:24	lyrics	buy track
I picture the white caps Say the waves too tall I picture the cliff edge And Imagine the fall And you say Easy does it now we’ll be alright Try to have some fun and just live your life Ease up on the reins just let it go Sit back in your chair and enjoy the show I picture the worst case Feels like risking it all I picture my failure See me missing the ball And you say Easy does it now we’ll be alright Try to have some fun and just live your life Ease up on the reins just let it go Sit back in your chair and enjoy the show And you say Easy does it now we’ll be alright Try to have some fun and just live your life Ease up on the reins just let it go Sit back in your chair and enjoy the show
6.	All For Something 05:14	lyrics	buy track
We’re wandering I’ll race you to the grass I’m laughing I say you’re pretty fast The water’s green Against a blue mountain Your sunlight pours Like water from a fountain Give me one more look Of loving I feel like this is all For something I’m growing into Spring like feeling Hold me closely I’m believing We take a path That curls along the shoreline You catch me up on a book you read at lunchtime I’m listening To all the words you’re saying Enjoy the plot The storyline your painting Give me one more look Of loving I feel like this is all For something I’m growing into Spring like feeling Hold me closely I’m believing

about

I made this little EP over the month of February. It's always a challenge to complete a project in one month, but it's a great creative (albeit sometimes frustrating) exercise. This EP ended up being mostly meditations on daily life and learning to embrace uncertainty or fear with more grace over time; growing in small increments.

Thanks to Joseph Human for playing the chugging guitar during the chorus on "Try Me"
