Born into a musical family (Miller is Glen Campbell's cousin), she grew up a classically trained musician steeped in musical theater. With a fake I.D. and big dreams, Campbell immersed herself in the Seattle music scene. At nineteen, she formed a band called Twisted Dixie and things took off way in a big way. While writing their first LP, Campbell got some unexpected news. "I had a fatal condition that demanded immediate double jaw surgery" she explains. Campbell wasn't allowed to speak for eighteen months. Unsure if she'd ever be able to sing again, she focused on songwriting and her classes, graduating the University of Washington with two degrees and honors at 21.

After graduation, Campbell was recruited by the C.I.A. Two weeks before she was scheduled to deploy to Ankara, Turkey she realized she just couldn't imagine a life not suffused with music and quit. She got a sales job, and, overachiever that she is, was soon made national director. Crisscrossing the country on business, Campbell dropped in on open mics whenever she could.

With the encouragement of her brother, John, she struck out on her own as a solo artist. A month after she made that choice John Campbell died unexpectedly from an irregular heartbeat. Campbell pulls no punches in the honesty of her art. "I hope that people get a genuine feel for who I am from this" she says. "Above all, I hope I can make a name for country music in the Northwest. We have incredible talent, and our own unique story to tell."
