‘His music is groove oriented, highly melodic and
just plain fun. Coupled with incredible technique and a knack for writing a
catchy tune, Miller has everything it takes to be a world-wide success' -
GUITAR INTERNATIONAL (USA)
'Miller is an outstanding guitarist' -
ACOUSTIC UK
Musicians & press all over the world are saying
the same thing, “It’s only a matter of time before the world sees & hears
the talent that is, Adam Miller”. It’s this talent that has seen him share
the stage & guitars with Les Paul, Tommy Emmanuel, Martin Taylor, Matt
Schofield, Charlie Hunter, Bruce Mathiske, Adam Levy (Norah Jones), Joe
Robinson, Kevin Wilson (Stevie Wonder), the list continues...
Miller’s fourth studio album will be released on June 15. Entitled “Delayed”
it ironically refers to the process of “Chasing that elusive tone in my
head” and finding it in his custom built Jeff Traugott acoustic guitar. “I
wasn’t going to record this album until the tone was perfect. It was a long
process to find the sound, but meeting Jeff Traugott at the Montreal Guitar
Festival was a pinnacle moment in that search. Of course then I had to find
the perfect studio, microphones, preamps and the quest continued!”
Containing 13 original compositions, performed solo on one acoustic guitar,
the album is an intricate journey of groove, precision and incredible tone.
“I put so much time into the writing for this album, and really feel it‘s my
best so far. I didn’t push these songs, but begrudgingly re-arranged and
re-wrote - even including a couple I’d recorded before. They’re influenced
by so many things - travels to America & Afghanistan, occupational hazards
(‘Carpal Tunnel Syndrome‘), and one was actually written during my wedding
speech!”
Australian Fingerstyle Champion (2002), Miller has played an
array of International & National festivals including the Montreal Jazz
Festival, Australian Blues Festival, A Day On The Green, Jazz In The Vines,
and the Melbourne, Frankston, and Adelaide International Guitar Festivals.
He is a regular artist at NAMM shows in Los Angeles & Nashville where he
plays for some of the world’s most respected guitar companies and luthiers.
Miller has featured in magazines such as Premier Guitar, Acoustic
UK, Australian Guitar, and Australian Musician. In 2010 Miller was named
"Guitarist Deserving Wider Recognition" by US based magazine, Guitar
International.
Adam juggles his time between America & Australia
where he lectures in contemporary guitar at the University Of Newcastle’s
Conservatorium of Music.
He is an endorsee of Traugott Guitars, B3
Guitars, Two-Rock Amplifiers, Analysis Plus Cables, and D’Addario Strings.
