"One of the most exciting and innovative guitarists performing today." -- Pickin'
At
the age of 12, John Miller was inspired to play the guitar after seeing
Mississippi John Hurt perform at the Philadelphia Folk Festival. He
bought his first guitar at the age of 16 and launched into an intensive
period of study of Country Blues guitar, learning the music of John
Hurt, Mance Lipscomb, Bo Carter, Blind Blake and other greats.
By the
time he was twenty-seven, John had released five solo albums to
international critical acclaim. Those albums ranged from Country Blues
and Old Time country music to the songs of George Gershwin. For the next
15 years, John focused on teaching, founding two music camps, composing
and building a vocabulary in Jazz and Latin music.
