I'm back at it again. Always going in circles with my music. After attempting to record my music with multiple musicians in the area, and not having success with schedules, I've decided to release all of my music in an acoustic format. I've also decided to record all of the songs live so they sound more organic / in the moment. I've never liked overdubbing a ton of parts. It's hard for me to get into the mood of the song unless it is live. Here's the first song I decided to record. I've been playing this song for years, but never got around to recording a version that I liked. This song is called "Youth is Wasted on the Young". Take a listen, download, share...Thanks!

"All Your Favorite Bands" - Dawes Cover
Hello Everybody,
I recorded another cover a couple nights ago. This is a cover of "All Your Favorite Bands" by Dawes. I had the privilege of seeing these guys live when they were supporting the album "All Your Favorite Bands". Dickey Betts' son, Duane Betts, played lead guitar for the band during this tour, and it was awesome. Duane added a southern rock element that made all of their songs more exciting. Anyway here's a cover of "All Your Favorite Bands." Hope you enjoy!

New Year New EP....Follow Me for the Ride!
Hello Folks,
It's 2015 and I'm ready to create some new music! I've decided to record a 5 song EP and document the entire process. You will get to see what goes into making an album using the DIY (do it yourself) model.
I will finish up some songs I've been toying around with, and write some songs from scratch. I'm planning on completing all writing and creative in January, mixing and mastering in February, and releasing the album on my website in March. It's going to be a fun process and I think you'll enjoy being a part of the project.
I'll post my song ideas as they come to fruition this month. I look forward to sharing my music with you!
Later,
Michael

New Trio....New Sound!
The trio consists of Matt Decker on drums, E'Lon Jordan-Dunlap on bass guitar, and Michael Miller, that's me :), on guitar / vocals. We played for about three hours last Saturday at the Tap Room weaving our way through blues, rock, funk, and jazz fusion. The show went well, and the bar is excited about having us back in the near future.
Very special guest, Tony Eltora, sat in with us for a set and it was awesome! I always enjoy sharing the stage with Tony....he is a great player.
I'll post recordings and pictures of the trio at upcoming shows. Until next time.....
