Hit Songwriter Dean Miller, Member of Country Music Royalty, Joins the July 26th Lyrics for Lyric Show, Hosted by the Award Winning Stylist/ Musician Mark Newton

Nashville, TN, July 12, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Mark Newton, Lyrics for Lyric show host, is proud to announce the addition of Dean Miller, son of the legendary Roger Miller, to the July 26th Lyrics for Lyric show.

Fifteen years after he first showed up in Nashville with his guitar and began racking up songwriting credits on albums by Trace Adkins, George Jones and Terri Clark, Dean Miller has finally hit his own stride. It’s not that it took all this time to figure out how to make his music work. It did, however, take that long to find a situation in which his associates asked him not to compromise, but to simply be himself. The result is “Platinum,” an album that captures Miller’s unique balance of polar traits: optimism and sarcasm, confidence and vulnerability, musical aggression and analytical introspection. Writing nine of the 11 tracks, Miller has fashioned an extraordinarily honest album, one that grapples with relationships, identity, weakness, risk and vocational revenge.

“It’s exactly where I’m at in my life,” Miller notes, “because it’s the first time ever that somebody has said ‘Here’s the money, go fall on your face.’ So what you get on this album is exactly where I’m at—artistically and as a writer—everything.”

The July 26th Lyrics for Lyric show will be the eighth installment of the on-going concert series presented by Roosters TX Style BBQ & Steakhouse, located at 123 12th Avenue North, Nashville, TN. 37203, hosted by Mark Newton, IBMA Award winning Stylist/ Musician and one of today's most respected interpreters of bluegrass music. Each month is jam packed with Nashville's best established talent in the Country, Bluegrass, Americana and Roots genres to benefit two year old Lyric Alana Frizzell (offset costs incurred while living at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital) whom was diagnosed with a rare, aggressive form of Leukemia at ten months old. After spending 6 months undergoing harsh chemo treatments at the Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital, Lyric is now in what’s called a “partial remission,” which simply means she has responded well to the chosen chemo treatment. She now frequents the Vanderbilt Cancer Clinic on a monthly basis and will do so for the next 3 and ½ years. If she can reach the 5 year mark without a relapse, she will be declared in full remission. Past shows have featured such stars as Jamie Johnson, Marty Raybon, Carl Jackson, Trent Tomlinson, Claire Lynch, Cia Cheryholmes, Missy Raines, Larry Cordle, Jerry Salley, The Roys, Whitney Duncan, Michael Peterson, Whitney Duncan and Billy Yates. As the show has grown, so has the talent level and sponsorship support from companies such as TKL Cases, D’Addario Strings, Double E Promotions and Paige Capo.

The July 26th show will also feature such great artists as American Idol Alum Bo Bice, Ken Mellons, Chris Caskey, John Austin McDaniel and Bedhed & Blondy to name a few.
