Good Times Magazine
“McMillan’s melodies may take you, sitting quietly, eyes closed, to places of darkness but always with the promise there is light. He is a talent hard wrought and finely honed. This album (Whisky) is a masterpiece.”
Maverick Country Magazine
“Michael McMillan’s album Cross Country has been nominated for album of the year by UK Country Music Radio and with his recent success in the USA drawing a loyal following and with songs such as Scars and Stripes, My Best Friend, No Heavy Load, Death by Broken Heart and eleven other great tracks, it’s easy to see why.”
RnR Magazine
“Laurel Canyon meets Greenwich Village. McMillan tells the poignant tales of man’s daily existence, the dramas, relationships, families and the not-so-little questions of life and why we are here. His songs display the sad beauty of life in a straight talking subtly effective manner and stand as fine testaments to his craft.”
Pensacolla Beach Songwriters Festival
“Michael McMillan creates a ‘family feel’ to his concerts and shows. He is equally comfortable playing in a large concert hall as he is in an intimate home concert setting, from a church to a prison… and he has played them all, taking with him his charming humour and stories of life. His songs are like mini-movies that take the listener right there to that particular time and place.”
Country Music People Magazine
“Michael McMillan is a singer songwriter with a huge amount of experience and the capacity to hold and entertain an audience with songs we can all identify with. His latest album Whisky is a real song-writing masterclass. This is not a ‘background listen’ you do have to concentrate. This is a million miles from the current Nashville product, which is very rewarding indeed. I find it hard to believe that McMillan is unsigned, un-managed and un-published. Someone should address this as soon as possible.”
British/Irish/UK Hotdisc Top 40 (Radio and TV)
“Michael McMillan’s album Missing Person is quite simply one of the best British original albums recorded this century. Stories of “real” people and “real” life. If you like Jason Isbell, Steve Earle, Jackson Browne and Bruce Springsteen unplugged, then you will love Michael McMillan’s music.”
UKCountry Music Radio
“We send our congratulations to Michael McMillan for having his album Cross Country nominated for album of the year. Well deserved by this outstanding songwriter.”
