Joel Miller was born in New Brunswick and picked up the saxophone at age 10. He moved to Montreal in 1988, graduating from McGill University's jazz program. His first album, 1996's Find a Way, prompted Globe and Mail critic Mark Miller to write: "His solos are supremely melodic - think of Stan Getz, or of John Coltrane at his most wistful... a terrific debut CD." He won the Grand Jazz Award at the1997 Montreal International Jazz Festival. He will perform with his special guests at Dièse Onze on Thursdays July 3, 17 and 24.
