Larry Miller - Outlaw Blues - 2006 - Big Guitar

ALBUM OF THE YEAR: A recent support slot with Walter Trout and Johnny Winter have seen him come of age.
In case you don\'t know it, Miller is a stunning guitarist,and arguably,the best currently active British-born axeman, with the possible exception of Jeff Beck. That good.His style is his own,with heavy influences from his hero Rory Gallagher, while also sounding like Stevie Ray Vaughan re-incarnated. - Total Kit car

"As the natural successor to Rory Gallagher and Alvin Lee, Miller with the right backing looks set to commute his way to fortune with ease"- The International Encyclopedia of Hard Rock

"The Uk's Stevie Ray Vaughan ... and more !"- Mojo Magazine

"His Guitar playing is simply mesmerising"- Blues Matters

Wanted for rustling riffs, stealing headlines and letting off his six string in public, Larry Miller has long been the quick drawin`outlaw of the UK blues circuit - and the Guildford cowboy returns here with an aptly named album that goes some way to justify the frothing PR comparisons to Stevie Ray Vaughan and Rory Gallagher. Miller has several aces up his sleeve,including an incisive line in original songwriting, a great backup band and a voice box that sounds like its been dragged behind a stagecoach. Above all that,the main reason to track down Outlaw Blues is because its author is, quite simply,one of the fieriest,fruitiest,ballsiest guitarists you\'re likely to hear,drenching his smart,self-penned tracks with blood and sweat,and ensuring you believe every last note. Being bad never sounded so good. - Classic Rock Magazine UK

The youngest son in an artistic and musical family from Guildford, Surrey in England, Larry was only seven when he picked up his first guitar. He studied the violin for seven years at
The County School of Music, Surrey, but settled on the guitar as his preferred instrument. He spent time with some experienced bands and played mostly around the south of England, focussing on the music of artists like Peter Green and Freddie King. Eventually, having gained much valuable experience, he formed his own band, and is now a highly respected guitarist within the music business. If you like guitarists like Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher, Joe Bonamassa or Walter Trout or simply good blues rock you may be impressed by this great underrated artist's guitar pyrotechnics and songwriting talents. This guy should be better known and deserves more promotion. Buy his great "Unfinished Business" album and support great modern blues rock. Give the lesser known artists like Larry and Jedward a break! (lol). Did anybody notice the quality of the songs in this years Eurovision Song "Contest". No? Anybody know who won? No? Anybody care?....Same here! (lol). Come on! Support real music [All tracks @ 320 Kbps: File size = 101 Mb]

ABOUT LARRY MILLER

After picking up his brother's guitar and writing his first song, he felt his future lay in Rock music, being influenced by some of the guitar greats - Jimi Hendrix, Rory Gallagher, Johnny Winter, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Gary Moore. "For me, my moment of inspiration was seeing Rory Gallagher live, I had never experienced anything like it. So loud, so gloriously on the edge of total mayhem, yet Rory was still totally in control. How could I not do this too! Like Rory I'd work under my own name, with a band. I'd do all the writing, singing, producing, playing and leading." Very quickly, Larry found his own Blues/Rock style, and has been constantly refining it. He is a guitarist, singer, songwriter, with a love for his music which is simply infectious. After many years in the music business and touring constantly, Larry has built up a large following across the UK and building an ever increasing army of fans in Europe. His status as guitar slinger, is becoming legendary with his exciting, mesmerising guitar playing and rip roaring live shows. His engaging personality brings a dimension of showmanship to his performances like no other. In 2009, Larry played an amazing seven encores at the Cambridge Rock Festival and a declaration was made of a "National Larry Miller day". This is embedded in the festival's history and he returned in 2010 to a standing ovation and the biggest crowd of the festival. He is unique, there is only one Larry Miller. Larry Miller has released 6 albums, all of which have had critical acclaim. The latest being 'Unfinished Business' which has had rave reviews. One journalist in his review stated " Unfinished Business is the business" and Classic Rock magazine wrote a glowing review of the album, giving it a top five star rating asking "Why isn't he a superstar"? Larry Miller plays Gibson Les Paul, Fender Stratocaster and Telecaster guitars through Marshall amplification. Larry says "Like many guitar greats, I have used Marshall for years as it gives me exactly what I need for my live shows and I am proud to be sponsored by Marshall". © 2012, Larry Miller http://www.larrymiller.co.uk/presskit.htm
