    McGonigel's Mucky Duck presents Scott Miller

    Scott Miller blends folk and rock like there ain’t no words for. The power of storytelling with the power of a compressed electric guitar comes through this Virginian not heard since the likes of Wayne Newton (fellow Virginian) or The Statler Brothers (also of the Commonwealth.) Not even since Thomas Jefferson (Virginian) and Woodrow Wilson (another Virginian) formed their rock trio with drummer Stewart Copeland (northern Virginian) “League of Nations”.

    Unlike most of the faux-simplified-effete’-elite-Americana/ Alt-Country world, Miller was actually raised on a working farm. His parents were a WWII generation couple that carried on the Spartan lifestyle of their Scots-Irish forefathers. Miller has described the lifestyle as “Amish that drink.”

    Miller moved to Knoxville, Tennessee, where he started scraping a living in local bars and clubs. The owner of a now defunct bar called “Hawkeye’s” quickly recognized Miller’s genius and gave him a regular night, where he built a loyal legion of fans and record bar tabs (despite the fact that Miller didn’t drink then…). The marquis outside said “Scott Miller: Every Damn Friday” for four long years, while Miller began touring regionally and building a following.
