w/Dan Carpel, bass & Greg Schutte, drumsSinger-songwriter-pianist Scottie Miller has toured with Rock & Roll Hall of Fame legend Bo Diddley. Also, Hal Leonard has published his work, and inducted three times into The Minnesota Blues Hall of Fame. Ruthie Foster and The Blind Boys of Alabama have recorded his songs.
Bluebird Reviews named Miller Artist of the Year in 2023. This was in recognition of his outstanding poetry book and album Carnival Cocoon. He collaborated with Ruthie Foster on her latest album, 2023’s Healing Time. This led to him gracing the red carpet at the 2024 Grammy Awards, where that album garnered a nomination for Best Contemporary Blues Album. (Scottie contributed to the title track and other songs on the album.) Furthermore, the same album received nominations at the 2024 Blues Music Awards. There, Scottie, Hadden Sayers and Ruthie won the Song of the Year award for “What Kind of Fool.”
Born in Minneapolis, Scottie Miller began piano lessons at age six. This became the start of a long and vibrant career in music and the arts. * At its core, his music is rooted in the vulnerability of the singer-songwriter tradition: raw lyrics, expressive vocals, and melodies that resonate long after the last note. But what sets Scottie apart is the way these intimate songs expand into something cinematic — incorporating string arrangements, ambient atmospheres, acoustic bass, guitar, and dynamic drums, all carefully woven into a cohesive, immersive experience.
From a lifetime spent on the road, on the stage and in the recording studio, his lyrics convey a cathartic approach to writing. “If you can tell me how you do it, maybe I can find a better way to cope.”
