Marilyn Miller

Hudson, NY and the surrounding towns have been home for singer/songwriter Marilyn Miller for most of her life, and her music often deals with the contradictions inherent in an area which is at once both very rural and very urban. You will find her most often playing in the electrol-acoustic punk-folk rock duo, Rick and Marilyn when not encouraging others at an open mic, having an open jam at her country home, supporting a farmers' market or other cause, or busking on the streets of her hometown. It is no surprise that, given the diversity of her sounds, her favorite musician is Neil Young, a man well known to follow his muse wherever it takes him. His influence is very evident in the songs Marilyn writes, and in how she approaches the art of music. As a performer, Marilyn is most often compared to Patti Smith, no doubt due to the high energy she displays in presenting her work, and her dedication to always seeking the truth in the music. Her goal is to provide the listener with sounds that make a person move, think and feel, and she does deliver.

Marilyn has been a guest at FODfest (www.FodFest.org), ran the Song Circle/Acoustic Jam at Red Dot in Hudson, NY moved from The Parlor), and has performed at The Spotty Dog (Hudson), Hyde Park Brewing Company, Beacon Barks Festival, American Glory (Hudson), Kennett Flash (PA), and various other house concerts, coffeehouses, private gigs, and farmers markets, as well as being a frequent face at local Open Mics.

Live shows are planned locally throughout the summer, and you will soon be hearing these songs on several local radio stations and internet stations. These schedules and listings can be found on www.MarilynMillerMusic.com, or better yet, sign up for her email list! http://eepurl.com/cBGHOv
