"The Waiting Is The Hardest Part" - Podcast with Izzy Miller
Feb 13, 2023 Season 2 Episode 4
David Still

In this episode I have a candid conversation with singer, songwriter, guitar slinger, and guitar dealer Izzy Miller.

In Izzy’s own words, “I’ll tell you exactly how I feel about anything”, and that’s exactly how this one goes.

If you’ve followed Izzy on social media for any length of time you know he has a huge personality and a great sense of humor. It all shines through during the show, but most importantly, he’s a good dude. 

Thank you Izzy!

We have a blast bouncing around beginning with Izzy’s formative years as a guitar player and musical influences from his dad, grandfather, and uncle. The flow leads us to the current state of country radio, thoughts on contemporary country music, and the vintage guitar market. 

Izzy’s latest record, “Izzy Miller Sings ‘Extra Bacon’ and Other Chart-Topping Hits, drops this Friday and we talk about the writing and recording process that went into it.

Huge shoutout to Robert Fox of Silver Fox Sound in Harvest, AL who was originally the engineer, but ended up producing the record.   

Izzy shows off some of his favorite guitars including:
1959 Martin D-28
1954 Gibson J-200
1920 Gbson Style O
1908 Gibson Style U Harp Guitar
1952 Les Paul

What does Izzy listen to? There’s no short answer and he could have talked for days about his playlists, but Izzy distills it down to these listening suggestions:

Steve Young’s records, “Renegade Picker” and “No Place To Fall”
Gary Stewart, Dave Dudley, Red Simpson, and Red Sovine.
