Ben Miller Band -- "I like the idea of saying something very complicated in a very simple way," Ben Miller states. "That's what we strive for musically, and what I strive for lyrically -- to get directly to the point." And the point is that Joplin, Mo., natives the Ben Miller Band return to George's Majestic Lounge for a free holiday show at 9 p.m. Dec. 23. The self-described "Ozark Stomp" quartet will release their third album, "Choke Cherry Tree," in January. benmillerband.com.
