about

We are happy to have our second CD, The Bumpy Road, here for you. It shares some characteristics with our first CD, The Singing Moon--a primary focus on sounds of Central and South America and the Caribbean, excursions into Jazz and Celtic music and a preponderance of original tunes. There are differences, too, though. I share the weight of the soloing a bit more evenly with John Reischman on this CD, and the over-all sound is more improvisatory. This CD has a vocal, too, with Koralee Tonack joining us for The Path Downhill. We hope you enjoy your journey on The Bumpy Road.
All Best,
John M. Miller

about

John Miller Bellingham, Washington

I made my first recordings at the age of 21, a solo Country Blues album "First Degree Blues" and one with Bluegrass trailblazers Country Cooking. I released four more solo albums before I turned thirty. After a long lay-off, started recording again in the '90s with instrumental duos, duos where I backed singers, solo recording and larger ensembles. You'll be able to find it all here. ... more
