“As Long as I Have You” Buddy Miller

This way: As Long as I Have You

Buddy Miller (born September 6, 1952) is an American singer, songwriter, musician, recording artist and producer. Miller is married to and has recorded with singer-songwriter Julie Miller. Buddy was born in Fairborn, Ohio, near Dayton, and his family eventually settled in Princeton, New Jersey. His grandfather gave him the nickname "Buddy".

During the late 1970s Miller was in a country-rock band called the Desperate Men, which played in venues in the North Jersey and New York area, including clubs like Stanhope House and Cuss From Hoe. In 1975, he moved to Austin, Texas, and played rockabilly music in Ray Campi's band. He auditioned for and played in the band Partners In Crime with Julie Griffin (soon to be his second wife).

In 1980, they moved to New York City, and Miller formed the Buddy Miller Band, which included singer-songwriter Shawn Colvin on vocals and guitar. He also performed with Jim Lauderdale and Larry Campbell. Each Sunday, Miller performed in Kinky Friedman's band at the Lone Star Cafe. Miller moved to Nashville in the 1990s, after a stint in Los Angeles. He worked on recording sessions as a guitar player and vocalist, and began producing his own records in his living room studio named Dogtown.
