About Me

"Slowly perfecting the art of 80's nostalgic dork-rock..." PULSE WEEKLY
"Hilarious and funny, Miller delivers catchy new wave punk bombs...at your Cervix!" BACKPACKROCK.COM
"Watch out Weird Al, a newer, quirkier, know-it-all has arrived on scene. Forward and funny, Mike Miller uses wit and wise cracks to make some grand points be known. Miller is a truly one of a kind song writer who stares political correctness in the face and then punches it square in the nose. In his new album “Complete Buffoonery,” Miller writes fantastically honest verses that turn universal truths into comic genius. Though many of his lyrics may offend, it is hard to hold a grudge when you are laughing so hard." SAN DIEGO PUNK
"One man named Mike Miller, armed with a keytar, has put together a collection of the most uncomfortably funny songs you’ll hear for awhile...songs are quite catchy, hard not to sing along to." AVOID PERIL
"Pure genius!!!" BUMSHAANK MAGAZINE
"...new wave funny songs with cleverly twisted lyrics...bouncy and engaging..." SMOTHER.NET
"I’m smiling – no, I’m laughing! I am going to have so much fun sharing this one with the buddies over some brewskies. We’re not laughing at Miller, we’re laughing with him." NEO-ZINE
"Haha- I really like this- it just gets better as it goes along! The hooks are engaging and playful, lyrics better than Bob Dylan! ah guys this is genius.... this album is produced within an inch of its life and each track comes about 3 seconds away from becoming massively irritating, but makes it by the skin of it's teeth...magnificent. THE SECOND PRIZE
Miller is a genuinely clever smart-aleck, a punk with a pop heart, weaving synth melodies and peppy rhythms into a celebration of witty dorkiness and lyrical lunacy.
Armed with a stack of vintage keyboards, Miller expands the realm of pop into a roller coaster ride through musical styles as varied as geek rock, twisted electro-punk, experimental avant-garde and 80?s new wave .
Toeing the line between intelligence and insanity, he poses (and answers) the questions: What is the perfect pick-up line? What do you do when your significant other loses a limb? Why is mom-and-pop pizza better than Domino's? Bowel diseases, mullets, fishing, they?re all planted here in this whimsical wonderland of the inane growing in a refreshingly diverse musical garden.

Motorcycles have their place in society.  So do automobiles.  I like to listen to loud music at times, especially when I deem there is a "good" song playing.  Ok Miller, where are you g...
