The Green Children are Milla Sunde and Marlow Bevan, a Norwegian/English duo who write and self produce ethereal music inspired by nature.

In this interview, we chat with the duo about music, their influences, the new project, and more.

Full Q&A, links, a stream of the their single Dreamers below.

Let’s dive a little deeper into You, the artist and your music. What attracted you to this genre(s) or style(s)?

We have always strived to make music that represents us as people. When we’re in the studio we’re really just doing what comes naturally. Always trying to connect with the heart more than the mind.

What led you into this journey with music? And further, what drives you to push it out to the public?

Music is one of the most magical things on the planet and we both grew up deeply influenced by it. To share our outlook on the world and connect with others is truly a gift which we treasure. Our audience really seems to have a similar view to us, which has been a wonderful surprise and made us feel a part of a community.

Who or what influences your creativity? Have your tastes in music changed over time?

Nature is probably one the of the biggest influences for us. We are now based in Norway, surrounded by beautiful forests and lakes and it feels very natural to bring that energy into our music. We love all types of music but tracks with atmosphere and heart has always been a strong favourite of ours.

Were you trying to accomplish anything specific on this new project? Creatively or otherwise?

We are always trying to create a new twist, not wanting to make the same song over and over. ‘Dreamers’ is a little more beat driven than some of our material and gives our fans a further insight into who we are and how we see the world.

You can listen to our latest single ‘Dreamers’ here.

What was the last song you listened to?

Gotta give some credit to Justin Bieber and his team, he has made some great pop songs as of late. It is nice when someone in the public eye has lyrics that are somewhat sweet.

Which do you prefer? Vinyl? CDs? MP3s?

Try to embrace everything. There is something cool about Vinyl of course, the charm and sound never gets old.

How about this one…. Do you prefer Spotify? Apple Music? Bandcamp? Or something else? Why?

Now that streaming is becoming the way forward, we are embracing all services. Right now, Spotify is probably the best consumer product, but we’re excited to see what Apple Music comes up with when they relaunch.

Other than the digital era overwhelming us with access to an abundance of music, what is the biggest challenge you face when trying to connect with or find new fans?

Probably the number of platforms out there. With so many people using different social networks, it is hard to get to everyone in one place. Most of our audience is on Facebook, so that has been our focus. It would be cool if there was more integration between some of the streaming services and social media.

Where is the best place to connect with you online? Discover more music?

Facebook is the site we are most active on: https://www.facebook.com/thegreenchildren/
