Scots DJ Suzie McGuire’s daughter hoping for chart success with mum’s song 20 years on

DJ Suzie McGuire’s daughter, Millie, is aspiring for chart success by releasing a dance single that her mother first recorded 20 years ago. The talented 20-year-old, who is currently showcasing her dancing and singing skills at Glasgow’s Berlinkys live venue, recently completed an HND in musical theatre at Gamta. Millie seized the opportunity to recreate her mother’s music and work with producer Steve Warner to add orchestral strings to the song.

Suzie McGuire, a radio DJ at Nation Radio, originally recorded the single ‘Falling’ in 2004 with Andy Gillespie of Simple Minds. Despite being approached to record the song while hosting a show on Clyde, Suzie humbly admitted to needing assistance, including auto-tuning. Suzie expressed her delight in having her daughter, who she describes as vocally gifted, record the song for its 20th anniversary. Millie, who has been professionally trained in music, shared her excitement at releasing her own single, incorporating new orchestral elements and a piano solo.

Millie revealed that she studied music full-time at the age of 16 and has been singing since she was eight, making the release of her single a dream come true. Working closely with producer Steve Warner in Hamilton, Millie successfully recorded the song in just two sessions. Reflecting on the experience, Millie expressed gratitude for following in her mother’s footsteps and discovering her mother’s musical talent. The article highlighted Suzie’s journey from recording the single two decades ago to her daughter’s current pursuit of a music career.

This heartwarming story showcases not only the bond between a mother and daughter but also the continuation of musical talent across generations. Millie’s determination to carve her own path in the music industry, inspired by her mother’s legacy, is truly commendable. The support and collaboration between Suzie and Millie in recreating a piece of music history demonstrate the power of family and passion in pursuing dreams. As Millie embarks on her own musical journey, she carries with her the love and guidance of her mother, setting the stage for a bright and promising future in the industry.
