Guitarist and singer/songwriter Derek Miller is a journeyman musician with eclectic taste and a knack for blues-inflected roots rock. Born on the Six Nations of the Grand River, Mohawk Territory, in Canada in 1974, Miller became interested in music in his early teens, and by the late '90s had not only toured with iconic Canadian vocalist <a href="spotify:artist:5exO2eW84QucBhrRhcK76x">Buffy Sainte-Marie</a>, but had also won a Canadian Aboriginal Music Award. In 2000 he performed on and co-produced <a href="spotify:artist:0aum4YUifChcnJyUmzGeOd">Keith Secola & the Wild Band</a>'s album Fingermonkey. Then, in 2002 he released his debut album, Music Is the Medicine, for which he garnered a Juno Award. Extensive touring followed his debut success, and by 2005 Miller found himself exhausted and struggling with drug and alcohol dependency. Subsequently, he entered rehab and spent the next year or so working to regain his physical, mental, and spiritual health. In 2007 he released his sophomore effort, The Dirty Looks. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi
