Next Elvis #11: Roger Miller
Info: Roger Miller is a student musician. He received private funding to record his debut album "Crayons," and headed up the project himself. He comes from quite a musical family and also plays the piano and cello.
Sounds Like: Honest acoustic goodness.
Why it's going to be the next Elvis: Miller shows why independent artists are the future of the music industry: The music is made by them, performed by them, and, in many cases, produced by them. Thus, the finished project many times more closely represents what the artist truly wants in their work than if the music had been produced by a third party. Crayons truly exemplifies the success of this creative control.
