Timeline
In California he began collaborating with Shawn Phillips, Bennie Maupin (fresh from Herbie Hancock’s Headhunters) Max Bennett, Airto Moreira, Tom Scott and the L.A. Express, Alphonso Johnson (Weather Report), Bobby Caldwell, Brand X, and many others. As Miller grew roots in Los Angeles, he continued developing original music with his contemporaries (such as Billy Childs, Mitchel Forman, Ed Mann, Abraham Laboriel, Tom Brechtlein, and David Garfield) at clubs through Los Angeles and Southern California.
He has been touring guitarist for the Boz Scaggs since 2014.
Miller appeared with Bette Midler in The Showgirl Must Go On in Las Vegas for 200 shows 2008-2010 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. He toured and made a number of television appearances including The Tonight Show and Ellen as a member of the Queen Latifah Big Band to support her 2007 jazz album Trav’lin’ Light.
In 2001, Miller released his first solo recording Save the Moon, on Marsis Jazz. For help, he enlisted drummers Tom Brechtlein, Peter Erskine, and Ralph Humphrey, bassist Jimmy Johnson, keyboardists Mitchel Forman and David Witham, and trombonist Bruce Fowler. In the liner notes, Miller states: I am a guitar player, but I didn’t want to do one of those “fast” guitar slinger records… I always wanted to do a record that reflected my interests… from being a John Lennon admirer to a devout Bitches Brew fan… I’m very happy with this album. I think it reflects a lot about what made me want to play music in the first place. 2008 saw the release of World Goes Round by the Mike Miller Quartet featuring Walt Fowler, Albert Wing, Chad Wackerman, and Jimmy Johnson, which includes original compositions as well as creative takes on George Gershwin and Pérez Prado. “If you love guitar, this is one to get! Producer Jeff Severson commented Miller in a review of “World Goes Round:” “There are world class players and there are great composers, he is one of the rare breed who is both.”
In the early 2000s, Miller played various custom-made instruments, some with Seymour Duncan pickups, as well as a Martin D-28. He used effects made by Danish company Emma and by Line 6.
Miller has released two albums under his own name and two other projects; with The Outsidemen, Band Overboard (1996), and with Bruce Arnold, Two Guys from South Dakota (2005).
In 1993 Mike joined jazz keyboard icon Chick Corea in the Elektric Band II to record the Grammy-nominated album Paint the World (1993). On this recording, Corea said: I wanted to go for a much less thought-out, produced, composed music. I wanted less written notes, varying tempos of songs… there was no effort in making it, and it’s exactly what we played.” The Elektric Band II toured the world for a year and a half, giving Miller an opportunity to play with Corea in an extended situation.
In the middle to late 1990s Miller discovered new stimulation working in orchestral settings. He performed the music of Frank Zappa as a member of Banned from Utopia (with the Seattle Symphony, the Portland Symphony, and the Israeli Philharmonic), recorded Joseph Curiale’s guitar concerto with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, and was a soloist alongside Peter Erskine with the Los Angeles Philharmonic New Music Group, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle, in the U.S. debut of Mark-Anthony Turnage’s Blood on the Floor (1997).
At the end of the 1990s, he was involved in the scoring Jessica Yu’s documentaries Breathing Lessons (Oscar winner) and The Living Museum. Miller performed with Bette Midler in her highly successful Divine Miss Millennium (1999–2000), and Kiss My Brass (2003–2004) world tours, as well as recording Bette (2000) with producer Don Was. He also worked with film composer Mark Mothersbaugh on Universal Pictures The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle (2000), Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), and numerous other film and TV projects.
In 1981 Miller began eleven years of working with progressive pop vocalist Gino Vannelli, touring and recording five albums. In 1983 he contributed the Grammy-nominated composition “Elamar” to the Yellowjackets album Mirage a Trois, and in 1986, started a trio with Ralph Humphrey and Jim Lacefield called The Outsidemen, releasing a live disk titled Band Overboard (1996)

There he met and played extensively with guitarists Robben Ford, Bill Frisell, and Larry Coryell, and performed in a variety of musical situations, which included opening for the Rolling Stones with ATCO recording artists Sixty Million Buffalo, and playing bass with legendary guitarist Tommy Bolin. While in Colorado, he also hooked up with the Fowler Brothers (trumpeter, flugelhornist, keyboardist Walt, trombonist Bruce and bassist Tom Fowler of Frank Zappa fame, and saxophonist Steve, and bassist Ed Fowler) and came to California to record the album Fly On with the group Air Pocket, produced by jazz great Oliver Nelson. Miller made the move permanent, relocating to Los Angeles in 1975.
