Band Members: Tom Miller generally writes, records, performs, produces and directs his own works. He occasionally employs the assistance of talented friends for certain audio art projects. Tom thanks Ron, the President and Executive Director of FREDInk Records for maintaining the largest archive of Miller's writings, recordings, videos, and art. Ron has also been a frequent collaborator on several Miller CDs. Miller also thanks Sal Mollica for providing encouragement and support so that Miller can continue his creative efforts.
Influences: Tom is influenced by a great many people in art and music. A small selection includes Andy Warhol, John Cage, Paul McCartney, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zepplin, The Minute Men, Ryuichi Sakamoto, The Cocteau Twins, Frank Zappa, King Crimson, Eddie Taylor, Jr., Robert Johnson, Billy Branch, Yoko Ono, The Beatles, and of course, the creators of South Park.
Sounds Like: Miller's range is extreme. From one minute to the next, his audioworks can sound like Cage, Beethoven, Beatles, Crimson, New Age, Hendrix, or sometimes, a variety of intolerable experimental works that hardly anyone can happily listen to.
