SAME SOIL is a tribute to the fertile blues/roots tradition influencing David Michael Miller’s unique style, following the heels of his breakout album, Poisons Sipped. Co-produced, mixed and engineered by Grammy Nominated producer, Mike Brown, at Temperamental Studio (featured on American Pickers), over half of this album was tracked with pre-WWII instruments and using old mic’ing techniques. Along with the vintage equipment, David brought in a host of veteran players to bring the songs to life including keyboardist Jim Ehinger (Bonnie, Raitt, Albert Collins, Billy Vera and The Beaters), saxophonist Jason Moynihan (Buddy Guy) and drummer Carlton Campbell (of The Campbell Brothers). David explores songs inspired by Muddy Waters, Jimmy Reed, Bo Diddley as well as a blend of americana, soul and gospel influences.

The album features songs that take the listener from hard driving acoustic blues, through greasy shuffles, gospel beats, slow moody ballads, on to funky blues rock and concluding with a heart wrenching song written to honor his grandfather who passed on during the recording of the album.

David Michael Miller's first solo release, recorded with help of producer Jesse Miller, members of The Campbell Brothers and other talented Western New York musicians. This project began as a songwriter album and became something more very quickly.

First and foremost, I am a songwriter. Yea, I sing and play the guitar and love live performances, but I've been writing songs now for 30 years and every day I get new inspirations to write. I've had businesses and positions managing large software projects along with other occupations, but my first love has always been music. This album began as a simple songwriter's album while I was still working my last job. I was hoping to share some tunes that I've wanted to track for a while plus some new tunes that came from a very difficult time recently. Jesse Miller was my co-producer on the album and introduced me to Carlton Campbell and Daric Bennett, the rhythm section of The Campbell Brothers. We tracked 11 songs in one day and we knew had a special chemistry. This album began to take on a life of its own. I lost my job as many in this economy have and decided to pursue music with all that I have. With this determination, I pushed even harder to finish this album and get it to as many ears as I could. I'm amazed at the wonderful musicians that came out to play on this album including Chuck and Darick Campbell of The Campbell Brothers on pedal and lap steel, Jim Ehinger, Jesse Miller and Rufus McGee Jr. on keys and organ, Barry Arbogast and Jason Moynihan on saxophones, Stephen Jacob Mclean Jr on trumpets, Serena Young, Jasmine Neeley and Ashley Nicole Brown on backup vocals, Ron Davis on accordion and the engineer of all engineers, Brian Moore from Redbooth Studios.

Poisons Sipped is a collection of 12 personal songs, written from the soul, influenced by roots music (gospel, blues, soul, r&b, country and r&r) and blended together into a concoction sure to cure what ails ya. From gutbucket beats and wailing steel guitars, to funky grooves and haunting vocals, this album will take you on a journey of Poisons Sipped.
