Brant Miller’s July 2026 release, “In The Meantime,” offers 12 finely crafted songs that together offer a realistic yet hopeful perspective of the ever changing political, social, and environmental landscape. It has been well-received by Folk DJs, with the album reaching #6, and Brant as artist #8, on August’s Folk Chart.

Brant grew up in Croton-on-Hudson, New York, steeped in the folk traditions of Pete Seeger and Don McClean, both of whom he met and jammed with as a teenager while crewing on the sloop Clearwater.
After five years of practicing forestry in Honduras in the Peace Corps and in Alaska, Brant moved to Nashville to pursue his musical dreams, pitching his songs and getting songs cuts. He resumed his forestry career but never slowed down, recording two CDs with his trio, 2nd Nature, playing twice at the Ryman, and winning or placing eight times in the prestigious Chris Austin Songwriting Contest at MerleFest. In addition, Brant was third-place winner in the 2025 Dallas Songwriters Association song contest, and finalist in both the 2025 and 2022 International Acoustic Music Awards contests.

Brant’s songs have been recorded by country, folk, and bluegrass artists in the U.S. and Europe, including the 2020 #2 bluegrass hit, “Fast as I Can Crawl” and “Somewhere Under the Rainbow,” which went Platinum in Denmark. His Climate Anthem “I Wanna Be Cool,” co-written with Will Kimbrough, is being used to inspire meaningful climate action and mobilize global youth to combat the world’s climate crisis.
Brant, who now pursues performing and songwriting full time, lives with his wife Patricia near Nashville on five acres with over 300 trees they planted

“The at-odds state of our union as Americans is discussed in “Something We Can Agree On” as In the Meantime opens the front gate for friends, neighbors, and any others who want to take a seat to find a common ground...Brant Miller… teaches a history lesson that creates a backstory for the current times of the citizens of the U.S.A. with “The Great Experiment”… He pens “Time to Forgive Myself” with Honky Tonk wisdom before exiting In the Meantime with the quiet reverie of “I Take a Minute”.

"Brant…sings with a warm folky pastoral tone. In the Meantime is delicate, with banjo picking, fiddle sawing & acoustic guitars. “Sometimes You Just Have To Let It Go” is an optimistic song about toleration. A good message song. More in a Woody Guthrie/Ramblin’ Jack Elliott style is “My Wild Oats Are Sown,” which sounds like it would’ve made a great Peter, Paul & Mary song. Brief but agile harmonica & piano solos lay down nice breaks during a well-recorded session.”
