Colin Miller

A concert at the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds featuring Colin Miller, a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from Asheville, North Carolina, with Brennan Wedl and Speedway Star on the bill.

Colin Miller makes music in the pop, rock and indie field, and works as a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from Asheville, North Carolina. Their second full-length album, Losin', follows Haw Creek, the earlier record set in the Haw Creek community in East Asheville, where Miller lived and worked in a house and studio owned by Gary King, a neighbour who acted as a father figure during Miller's school, college and early adult years.

Losin'turns to grief and the way heartbreak lingers in ordinary places. Its songs were written during the two years Miller stayed in the house after King's death. King had been a truck driver, the owner of King Automotive and a member of Street-Tiques Car Club. As his health declined, Miller took on a caretaker role, giving him haircuts, watching NASCAR races with him and bringing groceries, and the album draws on that period.

The Brudenell Social Club is a concert and performance venue in Burley, Leeds. The evening brings Colin Miller together with Brennan Wedl and Speedway Star.
