Mother Tongue: A Deeply Personal Exploration of Home, Identity & Healing
For years, MILCK has been known for her powerful anthems of resilience and change, including her 2017 viral protest song Quiet, which became a global voice for the women’s movement. Her collaborative prochoice anthem "We Won't Go Back" spread like wildfire in 2022. Now, her latest battlecry "Sisters of Winter" is deeply resonating across Instagram, with over 250,000 views in the last 4 days.
With Mother Tongue the album, she turns inward, weaving together personal narratives of self-discovery, love, loss, and the search for belonging.
The album’s title track explores the longing for connection across generations, inspired by MILCK’s struggle to communicate with her grandmother due to a language barrier. Through a waltz-like melody and heartfelt lyrics, Mother Tongue reflects on how love transcends words—through touch, laughter, and shared history.
“This album allowed me to honor my sometimes misguided journey of searching for home and belonging in all the ‘wrong’ places—relationships, career, even unhealthy coping mechanisms—only to realize that my true home has always been within myself,” says MILCK.
The album balances deeply personal storytelling with universal themes, touching on everything from heartbreak (Power of the Heart), independence (I Do), and enduring love (I’m In).
Celebrate with MILCK at Hotel Café
MILCK will bring Mother Tongue to life on stage at Hotel Café on March 6, 2025. Fans can expect a transformational evening of music and storytelling, with opening acts Jenny Yang and Jason Chu, who will kick off the night with comedy and spoken word pieces exploring the themes of home and mother tongue. The performance will be followed by a special afterparty hosted by the Women’s International Music Network to celebrate Women’s History Month.
The afterparty will include networking, a cash bar, complimentary snacks, and a chance to connect with fellow music lovers and industry professionals. The afterparty is proudly sponsored by Venus Guitars, Korg, and Positive Grid.
