notes
Lorna Miller is a life-long musician and singer who early
on focused on interpreting the music she loved vocally and
on the guitar. Country blues played a big role in her slide
guitar playing and artists like Memphis Minnie, Furry Lewis
and Leadbelly led the way.
"Music has always been at the center of my life along with my family, Lorna says. Early influences were great songwriters like the Gershwins and Rodgers & Hart and two great singers in particular, Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald and of course Roy Rogers.
Later on, it was Joan Baez, Tim Hardin, John Prine,
Neil Young, Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen and today two of my favorites are Guy Clark and Emmylou Harris. Of course Bonnie Raitt was an inspiration on the slide and then I returned to the old blues players. I write a lot of songs now and feel their artistry and inspiration each time I begin.
My children are all working musicians and songwriters in their own genres, carrying on what we've been given by those who came before. I love good writing and I love the honesty of a fine singer. I want to honor those who inspired me and honor the gifts. If I can do as well or half as well, I'll be a happy woman."
