Freya Milliken is a multitalented Canadian singer-songwriter and a recent graduate of the School of Music at Acadia University. Originally from Dorchester, New Brunswick, Freya has always appreciated small town life and found a home in Wolfville, Nova Scotia during her undergraduate studies, where she is now proudly based. Since 2021, Freya has been gaining momentum on the maritime festival scene, capturing the hearts of audiences of all ages and establishing herself as an emerging musician on the East Coast.
Freya's music is often complimented for its thoughtfulness, combining perceptive lyrics with heartfelt melodies and tasteful accompaniments on guitar. Her sensitive and gentle nature are key elements to the creation of her songs, "with a chills-inducing quality to her voice" (Heidi-Lyn O'Connor. 8 NB Artists to Watch For! Music NB Blog.), which describe the human experience and touch audiences from across the lifespan.
Freya is grateful to be surrounded by a supportive community of friends, colleagues, educators, fellow artists, and her family, and is thankful to have had access to music programs and educational opportunities since childhood. Now, as part of her work with Music In Communities, she is giving that same opportunity for Nova Scotia Youth to learn and fall in love with music by running various after-school programs and throughout the summer, one of them being a Queer Community Choir for all ages.
On top of all this, Freya is also in the process of writing new songs and recording her debut EP. Her latest single "Wholeheartedly" is now available on all streaming platforms. More to follow in Fall 2023.
