About Me


I am a freelance trombonist, vocalist, composer and arranger living in New York City. I recently completed a three year tour on the road with the Billy Joel/Twyla Tharp Tony award winning hit Broadway musical “Movin’ Out”.
"The Return of Slide Huxtable" is the debut CD from my long time Minneapolis based quartet Slide Huxtable, featuring Bill Bergmann on guitar, Chris Bates on bass and J.T. Bates on drums. The album contains nine tracks, four of which are my original compositions. It is for sale here, my website (www.markjmiller.net), the Electric Fetus in Minneapolis, and will eventually be available on iTunes and CD Baby.
