Lyrics
that will make you cry, a voice that will make you sing and guitar that will make you dance. Throw in a healthy dose of off
the cuff wit and you've got a Chris Miller show. Over twenty years of guitar experience, including work toward a BS in Classical
Guitar, make him a bit of an exception to the standard singer/songwriter model. He is equally comfortable as a vocalist and
a lead guitar player.
Miller
has honed his skills as a solo act through years slugging it out in the Iowa music scene, performing everywhere from casinos
and sports bars to presidential political rallys, coffee houses and even the Iowa State Fair. He's been one of the busiest
performers, averaging over one hundred and forty shows a year for several years now.
He has
released five independent albums and racked up a huge cover song list that ranges from Stevie Ray Vaughan to Damien Rice and
Ray LaMontagne. Miller jokingly quips, "I clearly have OCD but in this case it works to my benefit." His original songs
are deeply, sometimes painfully honest. "I understand more but now want to feel less. Joy rules my head but my heart is a
mess," from Falling Through Life, awarded Honorable Mention in Billboard World Song Contest 2009.
In the Spring of
2010 Chris sold nearly everything he had and moved into his RV to find adventure. After nearly a year on the road he
found his new home in San Antonio, TX and quickly established himself in the local music scene.
In June of 2012 Chris
sold everything again and began a contract performing on the Carnival Cruise Ship named Valor in the Caribbean until October.
He will join the Carnival Glory on the fifteenth of November and perform on the ship until April, maybe longer...
Home sweet home.
