Miller, Bill
Bill Miller is an award-winning recording artist, performer, songwriter, activist, and painter. His music is a blend of Native American and western folk/blues traditions. He is a hauntingly poetic songwriter who has written songs with Nancy Griffith, Peter Rowan and Kim Carnes. He has shared the stage with artists as diverse as Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder, the BoDeans, Richie Havens, and Arlo Guthrie. His paintings have been shown and sold in prestigious galleries around the country.
At the 2000 Native American Music Awards, Bill took home five Nammys, including Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, Songwriter of the Year, and Song of the Year. When Tori Amos asked him to be her opening act on the Under The Pink U.S. and Canadian tour, his music was exposed to a whole new audience. The tour sold out venues across the country and was extended to over two hundred shows.
