Texas-born singer/songwriter
Julie Miller grew up in a music-loving household. As a teen in Austin,
Miller made her professional debut as a singer and began collaborating with her future husband, guitarist/singer/songwriter
Buddy Miller. They settled in Nashville, and shortly after
Buddy released his solo debut,
Your Love and Other Lies, on HighTone Records. The album featured singing and songwriting from
Julie as well, and one of her songs, "All My Tears," was covered by
Emmylou Harris and
Jimmy Scott.
Harris ended up working with both
the Millers, offering
Buddy a lead guitarist spot on her 1996 tour, and providing guest vocals on
Julie's albums
Blue Pony (1997) and
Broken Things (1999).
Julie and
Buddy Miller also collaborated with like-minded musicians and friends like
Victoria Williams,
Mark Olson, and
Jim Lauderdale as the Creek Dippers, and with
Steve Earle and
Patty Griffin, who also contributed to
Broken Things. In 2001
Buddy & Julie Miller released their eponymous debut album as a husband-and-wife duo, and a compilation of their HighTone recordings entitled
Love Snuck Up was issued in 2004. The
Buddy & Julie Miller album Written in Chalk arrived in 2009 on
New West. ~ Heather Phares
