Biography


The Gibson/Miller Band was formed in 1990, when Doug Johnson, then-vice president of Epic Records, introduced Gibson and Miller to each other, thinking that the two artists would work well together as songwriters. Gibson and Miller soon assembled a band and recorded a demo tape, which they sent to Johnson. By 1992, the band was signed to Epic Records; their debut single, "Big Heart", was released at the end of the year.
In 1993, the group's first album, titled ''Where There's Smoke'', was released; it produced a Top 20 hit on the ''Billboard'' U.S. Hot Country Singles & Tracks charts with the single "High Rollin'". The Gibson/Miller Band also received the Academy of Country Music's award for Top New Vocal Duo or Group.[2][3] A second album, ''Red, White & Blue Collar'', was released in 1994, with the minor hit "Stone Cold Country" serving as its lead-off single. The second album also featured a cover of Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson's "Mamas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys"; Gibson/Miller Band's version was also featured in the movie ''The Cowboy Way''.[4][5]
The Gibson/Miller band disbanded in 1994; however, both Gibson and Miller continue to record solo and with other musicians.
