editA multi-instrumentalist,[1] Miller began playing piano at the age of 8 and later studied trumpet and drums at the Lyon and Healy's school of music. With roots stemming from the church, Miller's resume includes working with such well known musicians and songwriters as Marvin Yancy, Raynard Miner (Fontella Bass "Rescue Me"), Clarence Satchell and Marshall Jones of the Ohio Players and he was the drummer for former Roger Troutman and Zapp vocalist Wanda Rash.
