Channel: Gus Miller Band
Date: 2020-02-15

“If you miss the golden days of Willie Nelson, you should add Gus Miller to your rotation. He has that honky tonk spirit with meaningful lyricism. Heck, even his unconventional vocal style is a bit like Willie’s own signature. The combination all comes together for something really fun and exciting” – Ear To The Ground Music.

At 26 years young, Austin Texas based songwriter Gus Miller is making his own dent in the Alt-Country scene. Heavily influenced by the Outlaw and Cosmic Country sounds of the early 70’s (Gram Parsons, Jerry Jeff Walker, Waylon Jennings), his alternative approach towards Country and Roots music is authentically honest and raw. It shows conscience songwriting that shines with little effects/post-production, making for an organically warm sound that feels live.

Over the years, he’s had the opportunity to share bills with artists such as Ray Wylie Hubbard, The Wood Brothers, Jason Boland and the Stragglers, Them Damn Quails, Zac Wilkerson, Jackie Venson, Andrew W.K, Tenth Mountain Division, and many others. In 2017 he was a winning finalist in The Kerrville Folk Festival’s Songwriting Competition, earning himself a slot at the festival. The following year in 2018, while performing as frontman for Light Horse Harry, he released the record “San Pedro” with the group, which saw regional success. With that release, he and the group were awarded “Artist of the Month” by the Austin Music Foundation.

In Feb of 2020, Gus unveiled his solo project with the release his debut single “Perfect Fool”. Followed up with his second single “Midnight Wind” in March of 2020. He has plans to release more music under his name and eventually hit the road as Covid-19 lets up. Follow Gus Miller on Spotify to hear the latest tracks.
