John has been a professional singer/keyboard player since 1986. After playing with his high school’s national-award-winning jazz ensemble, his education continued at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA, and Fanshawe College in London, where he studied Piano, and Recording Engineering. John is comfortable singing in many musical styles, which has resulted in a diverse career as a working musician, on the road, and at home in KW. John was a director of music ministry at St. Louis Church in Waterloo for 10 years.
In recent years, John has produced an annual concert series during the season of Advent, and one during the season of Lent. The concerts endeavour to take hand-picked music from each season, whether it be traditional or contemporary, and present it in a prayerful, modern, and beautiful way. To date, John B. Miller & Friends has performed over 100 concerts to audiences of different denominations…to overwhelmingly positive reviews.
John regularly does freelance singing and playing for a variety of non-religious occasions, including corporate events, weddings, and restaurants with the band The Doubtfires. He sings and plays at the Henry Walser Funeral Home, and does fill-in music ministry for local churches. He also owns and operates a professional audio company, called Audiocraft.
