Post Description

Scott Miller is a rock and roll singer, songwriter, and guitarist
Early years
Born in 1968, Miller grew up on a farm in Swoope, Virginia. After graduating from William and Mary, he moved to Knoxville, Tennessee in 1990. In 1994, he helped form a band called the Viceroys, which ultimately morphed into The V-Roys to avoid confusion with existing groups. The V-Roys were the first act signed on Steve Earle's E-Squared label. After the V-Roys split up in 1999, Miller formed a new band, Scott Miller and the Commonwealth, who were briefly the house band on Blue Collar TV. Miller said the money was nice but he now sleeps better at night after leaving the show. One of Miller's trademark routines is to continually ask his crowd "Are you with me?" or "Are you still with me?" during the show.

Although he briefly formed a band in college, Scott spent a lot of his early career playing acoustic solo performances. After arriving in Knoxville, he landed a standing Thursday night gig (among others) at Hawkeye's, a then-popular bar and restaurant on the University of Tennessee "strip" (Cumberland Avenue). At Hawkeye's, Scott built a dedicated cult-like following with his friendly and light-hearted stage presence. Miller wrote and performed sing-alongs about drinking, beer, funny neighbors, sororities, and -- his favorite topic to lampoon -- himself.
