Scott Miller is a rock and roll singer, songwriter, and guitarist. Born in 1968, Miller grew up on a farm in Swoope, Virginia.[1] After graduating from William and Mary, he moved to Knoxville, Tennessee in 1990. In 1994, he helped form a band called the Viceroys, which ultimately morphed into The V-Roys to avoid confusion with existing groups.[1] The V-Roys were the first act signed on Steve Earle's E-Squared label. After the V-Roys split up in 1999, Miller formed a new band, Scott Miller and the Commonwealth, who were briefly the house band on Blue Collar TV.
