TCFA is proud to announce John Miller performing on guitar in a free live-stream online only concert.

The program will focus on Country Blues, with a mix of his own original compositions and arrangements in that style. Along the way, he'll also be singing and playing some classics from the Great American Songbook, with writers like Hoagy Carmichael and Jerome Kern, to name a few. Join us!

John Miller was inspired to teach himself guitar after seeing Mississippi John Hurt at the 1963 Philadelphia Folk Festival, playing whenever he could on borrowed instruments. In his junior year of high school he bought his first guitar, and his learning really accelerated. While attending Cornell as an undergraduate, he recorded his first two solo albums, as well as two albums with the Ithaca-based Bluegrass trailblazers, Country Cooking, of which he was a charter member. John went on to record three more solo albums before the age of thirty, and has since maintained a busy schedule of teaching, composing and recording. In recent years, he has focused on teaching, and in addition to teaching at music camps in the U.S., Canada and England, has recorded seventeen video lessons for Stefan Grossmans' Guitar Workshop and had four instructional books on Country Blues Guitar published by Mel Bay.
