A naturally gifted musician, Byron Miller developed an interest in keyboards at the tender age of 5, but seriously took on playing bass as a high schooler in Detroit. Self-taught, he sat for hours with his bass (often without any amplification) learning his craft. He became so intimately attuned to his instrument that he’d play until he could feel the accuracy of the chords—‘til the vibration of each note of the chords rang true. His diligence paid off when at 18 years old he was asked to join Roy Ayers Ubiquity, which culminated in three albums and several years of touring.
