Top 10 ESSENTIAL Albums of 2012 - Acoustic Guitar Magazine

Australian Instrumental guitarist Adam Miller released his 10th full-length album, TIMING, on April 18, 2025. Recorded in Los Angeles with the exceptional Joel Gottschalk on Bass and Justin Glasco on Drums, this album was recorded in just 5 hours before the trio performed a show in LA on the same day! It features the singles What I Want To Hear, Light And Shadows, and Moving Pianos.

Adam's LA-based trio of Joel Gottschalk on Bass (Kate Hudson, May Erlewine, Phillip Sayce), & Justin Glasco on Drums (Paris Paloma) have developed a tight musical relationship after doing many shows & coffees around Los Angeles over the past 7 years, which is highlighted on TIMING, their third album together - the trio was also featured on Unify (2020) & Beyond Reason (2023). This recording was intended to be part of a larger project, but the trio got through more music than initially intended, and with the speed of the recording process it developed a unique sound that needed to stand alone. With only a few hours to record, you're hearing a spontaneous reaction to the new and reworked music, all live in one room, with no overdubs!

With a career spanning just over 20 years, Adam Miller had early beginnings as a solo guitar virtuoso, that led to session playing, producing, mix & master engineer, university educator, and everything in between, but his vision of creating instrumental guitar music has never lost focus.
