  Hazel Miller is not just a great singer, "she is a force of nature!" quotes the Rocky Mountain News. Her voice has been called "stunning, moving, and powerful." Hazel has been a sought after performer in Colorado for the past 14 years. Whether she is singing Blues, Jazz, Pop or Gospel, her voice charges the songs with a primal dose of genuine soul. Hazel began her 28-year career in Louisville, Kentucky, where she rose to the top of the music scene. She opened for popular artists such as Bob James, Mel Torme, Earl Klugh, The Temptations, The Count Basie Orchestra and many others before moving to Denver in 1984. Since moving to Colorado, she has regularly performed with Big Head Todd and the Monsters. Becoming the newest member of this national recording and touring band, she was a regular performer on the ETown Radio Show on NPR. She has performed at all the major jazz and music festivals throughout Colorado while maintaining a working band which won the Westword Readers Poll for "Best Blues/R&B" band for three consecutive years. She has sung with or opened for such artists as John Hammond, Peter,Paul and Mary, John Mayall, Leo Kottke, Herbie Hancock, Nancy Griffith, Buddy Guy, James Taylor, Lou Rawls, Spyro Gyro, Little Ed and the Blues Imperials and many more. During her opener for The Allman Brothers, the Denver post raved "At some point the rest of the country will learn what Colorado already knows: that Hazel Miller is a coal-fired steam engine of soul who never fails to deliver the goods...." Denver's Citysearch "If Aretha ever had a soul sister, her name would have been Hazel Miller."
