Newly launched milenine is a team of veteran rockers, who have played together for years as the core of a well-loved regional concert band. As members’ songwriting converged on their characteristic sound, honed through extensive live performances and studio sessions, they knew it was time to transcend their legacy, and re-launch with an exciting new package in Fall 2007.
Milenine delivers accessible, original modern rock featuring well crafted vocals, textured instrumentation, and polished songwriting. The music starts from a solid melodic-rock foundation and integrates hints of pop, prog, synth, classic, indie, alternative, and emo. This esoteric blend has elicited fan comparisons to U2, Staind, Porcupine Tree, Coldplay, the Who, Joe Jackson, Jars of Clay, Evanescence, X, Supertones and more.
While their music appeals to a broad audience – and has earned the band chart-topping and Top 10 listener requested songs on DC area radio and internet broadcasts in 2005 and 2006 - the hallmark of the band has always been their soul-stirring, passionate live performance. You’ll find them singing and playing their hearts out at festivals, carnivals, concert series, and community events in the greater mid-Atlantic. Since lyrical content draws gracefully from the members’ Christian faith, the band is also a favorite with church youth groups, retreats, and similar events.
