2011 was a great year! Sadly, the band 'That Evening Sun' ended, it was fun while it lasted. The highlights are plentiful: Tracy A. Morgan joined 'The BlueSouls', I played in the 5th annual Bob Dylan B-Day Tribute (my 4th consecutive year) in Sedona, AZ, 'The Dave Miller Band' is going strong, and 'The Orphans' were formed ( a trio of me, Dave Miller and Tim Jackson). I am a very blessed and very happy harmonica player! Welcome to 2012!!
