The Millers, a family band of three talented brothers and their father, perform at The Center for Performing Arts at Governors State University for a night of cabaret-style entertainment Saturday, March 27 at 8 p.m.This live concert event features Clayton on guitar and vocals, Cole on drums and vocals, and 16-year-old blues harmonica extraordinaire LD, along with their dad Larry on bass. As the second place winners on the first season of NBC's hit show "America's Got Talent" and opening for blues legend B.B. King at The Center in February 2007, The Millers make a triumphant return for the final cabaret show of The Center's 2010 series. Single tickets are now on sale, priced at just $37 and available at centertickets.net or by calling The Center Box Office at (708) 235-2222.
The Millers are the final show in the new 2010 "The Cabaret at The Center" three-part series that allows audiences to enjoy the experience of sitting on The Center's stage with the band as it is transformed into a 1940s-style cabaret club complete with table seating for 250, full cash bar and snacks available for purchase.
Although they had been singing around the camp fire together for years, The Millers were officially born after Clayton left the alternative band he had been the front man of since the age of 15. Following the family's passion for blues-infused rock, Clayton, his brothers and his father started playing together in 1999, and they have been touring together ever since.
Each member of this family-band is blessed with extraordinary talent. Brothers LD and Cole just finished headlining at the Tropicana in Las Vegas for 10 months, and The Millers have shared the stage with artists including BB King,
Stevie Wonder,
Alicia Keys, John Popper of Blues Traveller, Keb Mo, Kanye West, India Arie,
Ziggy Marley,
Joss Stone,
Joan Jett, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Buddy Guy, James Cotton, Walter Trout and
Ricky Skaggs. The band has also appeared on a slew of popular shows such as "The Ellen Show," "The Today Show," "The Tonight Show," "Extra" and "Access Hollywood." The Millers were even selected for the Blue Deluxe Radio Program, which is aired on 100 radio stations across the country. The Millers are in good company on the exclusive program, nestled between BB King and
Bob Dylan.
