The Ben Miller Band, formed in Joplin, Missouri, is an American band that uniquely blends elements of folk, blues, bluegrass, and country into their signature sound. Known for their innovative musicianship, the band has a knack for creating a robust musical experience using non-traditional instruments such as electric spoons, washboards, and a homemade one-string bass. This ingenuity has allowed them to craft a genre they've often referred to as "Ozark Stomp," paying homage to their roots in the Ozarks region.

The band's eclectic style is on full display in their more recent releases, such as "Choke Cherry Tree" and "Any Way, Shape or Form," showcasing their evolution without losing the gritty authenticity that first garnered them a devoted fan base. Collaborations and contributions to other projects, like the “Outsiders (Music from the Television Series),” have allowed the Ben Miller Band to expand their audience and demonstrate their versatility. Albums like "Heavy Load," with tracks characterized by storytelling lyrics and layered instrumental work, continue to cement the band's place in the Americana music landscape. With a discography that appeals to both the traditionalist and the modern music lover, the Ben Miller Band continues to navigate the music industry with a mix of respect for tradition and a tireless drive for innovation.
