Tony Rice Tattoo

Nashville, TN- Melton & Miller Music is excited to announce the release of Tony Rice Tattoo, a new single from award-winning songwriter Milan Miller. Written by Beth Husband, Charles Humphrey III and Milan, the tune spins a trippy tale of love at first sight on a Telluride trail.

An accomplished multi-instrumentalist, Milan often jokes that he first moved to Nashville in 1999 because he “heard they were running out of guitar players,” but with a wry southern wit and his trusty tenor voice, he has built a reputation as an adept artist, songwriter and collaborator. Traveling the world, Milan has made appearances at venues ranging from Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheater to Buck Owens’ Crystal Palace in Bakersfield, California, and from the Grand Ole Opry to Symphony Hall with the Boston Pops Orchestra.

In addition to his recent standout solo recordings that include Ghosts of Galway Bay, Trout Don't Live in Ugly Places, Callie Calling, Ruby Still Falls, Distractions, Talking to Myself, Timepiece and Coon Dog Cemetery, Milan’s songs have been recorded by some of the biggest names in bluegrass, including Balsam Range, Lonesome River Band, Steep Canyon Rangers, Terry Baucom, Tim O’Brien, Buddy Melton, Sam Bush, Missy Armstrong, Russell Moore & IIIrd Tyme Out, Unspoken Tradition, Irene Kelley, Junior Sisk, Songs from the Road Band, the Grascals and many others. Along the way he has scored thirty-eight number one songs in the genre, over four dozen others that have graced the top twenty, two nominations for Song of the Year and was named the Songwriter of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association in 2020.
