The JiMiller Band is a four-member band that plays some of the best new music in the Midwest, with Jim's resonating vocals and jazz-infused lead guitar, Brett Miller on bass, Steve "Nev" Scheff on keyboards and Brian "Bagel" Golenberg on drums.
The JiMiller Band's style is as varied as their influences; JiMiller "blends together blues, country, Cajun, old Rock 'n' Roll, jazz and bluegrass into musical Americana that is both fresh and timeless" in their everlasting sets. However, the band is best known for its freeform improvisation rock that was made famous by the Grateful Dead and Allman Brothers.
Their lead man Jim Miller has been playing music for most of his life and was the former front man of the band Oroboros, orchestrating their 18-year odyssey on the road and playing at the 1994 H.O.R.D.E. Festival, the 1996 Further Festival and opening for such acts as PHISH, The Kinks, Hot Tuna, Santana, Richard Thompson, Robert Hunter and members of The Grateful Dead just to name a few. He has also had the privilege of sharing the stage and jamming with Blues Traveler, Sheryl Crow, The Allman Brothers, Hot Tuna and the legendary John Cipollina of Quicksilver Messenger Service.
The JiMiller Band played the 10,000 Lakes Fest in 2004 with String Cheese and Galactic. They also opened for Bruce Hornsby and during the summer of 2005 and 2006 they opened for Little Feat at Cleveland's House of Blues. They also opened for Rusted Root on Memorial Day weekend 2007 at Tower City Amphitheater and again to a sold out crowd on NYE 2007 @ House of Blues, Cleveland.
The JiMiller Band truly shines at music festivals. Over the summer of 2008 and 2009, the band kicked off the season at Nelson Ledges. Jim loves music festivals so much; he throws his own each summer at Nelson Ledges, called Lazy Daisy and again in the fall with DeadFall, focusing on the music of The Grateful Dead.
What will you get when you go to a JiMiller show? The JiMiller Band plays Jim's originals, the Grateful Dead, Phish, Allman Brothers, Beatles, blues, folk and Rock 'n' Roll. The JiMiller Band is a bright, positive star in the midwestern music scene. Come on out and join the party!
