Formula Indie Sessions _ Interview with Jannick Miller
Introduction of the project
What is your earliest memory connected to music?
I’ve always been a fan of music since childhood, and I remember singing and listening to albums like Justified by Justin Timberlake. And Back to Bedlam by James blunt.
I had these on repeat in my room.
How did your passion for creating music begin?
It started with a friend of mine around the age of 17. We had a common interest in playing the guitar and we started recording cover songs on his computer.
Later that same year I wrote my first song ‘All I See’ and I just knew that the feeling I got from writing songs and singing was a feeling I had to keep chasing.
What’s the story behind your current music project?
I got a DM from a producer in 2021 that had seen me play at a venue in Odense.
He suggested that we get together in the studio. So, we did and we recorded 2 songs but never finished them. In 2024 we met each other at a festival concert and then reconnected to get back in the studio to finish the songs and record new ones.
Now we have released 4 songs since October 2025. And we have 2 new ones coming this summer. Levitate is the name of the first one.
How would you describe your sound to someone who has never heard your music before?
Alternative pop/ indie pop, mixed with a Folk and Singer/songwriter vibe.
What is one thing you’ve learned that completely changed the way you make music?
That you learn nothing from success, but everything from failures.
I learned that music is trial and error, don’t be afraid to make mistakes and everything does not have to be perfect.
What tools, instruments, or software are essential in your creative process?
We use guitar, piano, microphones and a studio setup with a computer and great monitors. We use Logic to record all our sounds.
Which indie artist or song are you loving right now?
I found this guy called Efact I really enjoy some of his tracks like Choices.
How have your personal experiences influenced your music and artistic vision?
It has a large influence on my music because writing about what I feel in a moment or towards another person comes naturally to me and I find the words quickly in songwriting. It’s my way of getting things off my chest.
What emotions or messages do you hope listeners take from your work?
I hope that my listeners can relate to my lyrics in some way and connect them to their own feelings and experiences. To move people and make them feel something. just like I feel when I listen to my favorite artists.
What’s the most important lesson music has taught you so far?
Music helps me to stay grounded every day and brings out the best of us when we connect to it.
and, that it’s okay not to be perfect in a world where everything seems like it has to be to be good enough.
What is a dream venue or festival you would love to perform at?
Royal Arena in Copenhagen.
If you could collaborate with any artist, past or present, who would it be and why?
I would love to collab with Phill colins in the 90’s I just love everything about his music.
but I would never pass up an opportunity to write a song with Ed Sheeran.

Looking toward the future, what’s your dream for the next chapter of your musical journey?
My dream is to play more live shows and hopefully one day, I will quit my job and make music full time.
What do you hope listeners will discover about you along the way?
I hope they get to know the real me and get to understand where my music and my lyrics come from. And that I will always just be a simple guy writing songs, and nothing more.
