"Ed Miller is one of the best singers to emerge from the Scottish folk
revival, a guitar-wielding folkie who wins his audiences over with a sweet but
powerful voice, a great ear for material, and equal doses of populist politics
and wry humor. He learned his craft in the sessions, clubs, and festivals of the
folk revival, both in Scotland and the United States. Miller is also a scholar
with an academic degree in folklore and a deep curiosity about history and
culture, and his multiple roles and approaches to music and song make his
performances and recordings that much more rewarding." Steve Winick, contributor
to The Music Hound --The Essential
Albums Guide
“Ed Miller, a native of Edinburgh, Scotland now living in Austin, Texas, is a product of the 1960s folk revival in Scotland. He moved to the United States in 1968 to complete his graduate work in Geography, and later Folklore, at the University of Texas at Austin. In addition to his singing career, Ed is the host of a folk music program on Austin's NPR station, KUT-FM.
Ed Miller is a performer who has learned his craft in musical venues on both sides of the Atlantic.... and a folklorist who brings his love of Scotland to every performance. Since 2000 he has led folk-music based tours to Scotland every summer” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Miller_(Scottish_folk_musician
