| About Jeff Miller |
|
Jeff has been playing guitar and performing for
over 29 years. He has played in a variety of bands.
His music influences include bluegrass, country, jazz,
blues, rock and metal.
Jeff began playing guitar by learning country and
bluegrass standards. In his early years, he was
primarily influenced by his parent's record collection.
This included Bill Monroe, Flatt and Scruggs, Porter
Wagner, Ernest Tubb, Hank Snow, Hank Williams Sr.,
The Carter Family, Roy Clark, Johnny Horton and
Merle Haggard just to name a few...
While still in his teens, Jeff formed a country band
with school classmates and his sister on bass guitar.
This group performed nearly every weekend at the
clubs and dance halls in the area. After graduating
high school, Jeff was hired by a Top-40 rock band
comprised of seasoned musicians nearly twice his
age. He gained valuable experience while performing
with this group.
When the Metal scene surfaced, Jeff was inspired by
the new level of musicianship. He studied players such as Eddie Van Halen, Paul Gilbert and Yngwie Malmsteen and
began a six hour per-day practice regimen. After
emerging from the woodshed, Jeff submitted a demo
to producer Mike Varney. Jeff was featured in
Mr. Varney's "Spotlight New Talent" column in Guitar
Player magazine in 1991. Jeff was later featured in the "Hometown Heroes" column in Guitar World magazine
in 1992.
Jeff's guitar style is best described as a mixture of
country, blues, jazz-fusion and hard rock.

IMPORTANT NOTE - If you venture out on the digital download sites looking for my songs, I'm not the same Jeff Miller that has released the "Something Different" and "Trying to be Cool" CDs. That's another fellow by the name "Jeff Miller".
