Timeline

1973

Amy Millan (born December 3, 1973) is a Canadian indie rock singer and guitarist.

She records and performs with the bands Stars and Broken Social Scene as well as having a successful solo career.

1999

Feeling that Millan would be a good fit for the group, Cranley invited her to New York City to audition in December 1999.

After receiving assurances that she would be actively involved in the songwriting process, Millan agreed to join the band.

2000

It consisted of songs largely written before 2000, from when Millan was a member of 16 Tons.

The album title was inspired by a Tom Waits interview where he compared the release of older songs to the discovery of sweet honey buried in Egyptian tombs.

The album was produced by Ian Blurton and musical contributors included Brendan Canning and Kevin Drew of Broken Social Scene and Dan and Jenny Whiteley from Crazy Strings.

In contrast to her work with Stars, Millan's solo work is strongly influenced by country and folk music.

Thematically, many of the songs deal with loss and loneliness, and taking solace in alcohol is sung about numerous times.

Millan's upbringing in Toronto provided the inspiration for the song "Wayward and Parliament", which is based on her time working in the coffee shop "Jet Fuel" on Parliament Street.

Two videos were shot to promote Honey from the Tombs: "Skinny Boy" was directed by George Vale, and "Baby I" was directed by Anthony Seck.

The songs "Losin' You" and "Baby I", were released as 7" singles in Europe. Millan also toured extensively to support the album, playing dates in North America, Japan and Europe.

2001

As much of their debut album had been recorded prior to her joining, Millan's involvement in 2001's Nightsongs was limited, although she did write and sing lead vocals on "Toxic Holiday".

Desiring to return to Canada, but not wanting to move to Toronto, the band relocated to Montreal.

2002

From 2002 onward, Millan has often performed in BSS alongside fellow Stars members Evan Cranley, Chris Seligman and Torquil Campbell.

2003

Drummer Pat McGee was recruited as their fifth member prior to the release of their second album, Heart, in 2003.

Millan's influence was more evident on this album, and a number of the tracks were performed as duets between her and Torquil Campbell, establishing a style for which the band would become well known.

2004

Stars' commercial breakthrough came with their 2004 album Set Yourself on Fire and the accompanying single "Ageless Beauty", which she wrote and featured a lead vocal by Millan.

2005

She appeared on their 2005 self-titled album and also contributed vocals and writing to Kevin Drew's 2007 solo album Spirit If... as well as to Brendan Canning's 2008 solo album Something For All of Us.

As in Stars, Amy usually sings with BSS but also plays guitar and percussion during live shows.

2006

Amy Millan released her debut solo album, Honey from the Tombs, in 2006.

2007

Their fourth album, In Our Bedroom After the War, was released in 2007 and was followed by the EP Sad Robots the following year.

2009

Her second solo album, Masters of the Burial, was released by Arts & Crafts Productions in September 2009.

Amy Millan grew up in the Cabbagetown neighbourhood of Toronto.

She attended high school at Jarvis Collegiate Institute, and later the Etobicoke School of the Arts where she studied drama alongside future Broken Social Scene bandmates Kevin Drew and Emily Haines.

Millan dabbled in acting, appearing as a pregnant teen in the first episode of the second season of Degrassi Junior High.

Millan and Haines formed the band Edith's Mission.

Although short-lived, Edith's Mission did play a sold-out show at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto.

After high school, Millan moved to Montreal for three years to attend Concordia University and gained experience as a solo performer by playing in coffee shops.

Upon returning to Toronto, she formed the roots-rock band 16 Tons and wrote many of the songs that she would use to launch her solo career several years later.

After the breakup of 16 Tons, Millan moved to Los Angeles.

While living there, her song with 16 Tons, "Bury Me," was added to the soundtrack of the film Drowning Mona.

However, Millan, missing a city where walking was encouraged over driving, returned to Toronto.

Stars was formed by Torquil Campbell and Chris Seligman in New York City.

The line-up subsequently grew to incorporate Evan Cranley, with whom Millan had played gigs while a member of 16 Tons.

Millan released her second album, Masters of the Burial, on September 8, 2009.

The album is produced by Martin Kinack and musicians appearing include Evan Cranley, Dan and Jenny Whiteley, Mark Roy, Leslie Feist and Liam O'Neil.

The album features several cover songs, including some written by Death Cab for Cutie and Sarah Harmer.

2010

In June 2010, they released their fifth full-length album, The Five Ghosts.

Although she did not officially contribute to Broken Social Scene's first two albums, due to scheduling conflicts for BSS members Emily Haines and Leslie Feist, she was asked by former classmate Kevin Drew to "be the girl" and sing with the band for the release concert of the band's second album, You Forgot It in People.
