Clint Miller (born August 11, 1984) is an American entertainer and writer. ==Music== Miller dropped out of Yale College in 2004 to start work on a large concept album, ''Ballad of a Modern Day Cowboy: a Tragedy in Three Acts'', which ultimately wove an hour-long story through twenty-one connected songs. Recording in a renovated stone castle in Knoxville, Tennessee, Miller performed upwards of fourteen instruments personally throughout the recording process.〔AmericanaUK, June, 2007, http://www.workingtitle.co/drafts/auk/modules.php?op=modload&name=Reviews&file=index&req=showcontent&id=2902〕〔The Warble, Issue 6, http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/thewarble/〕〔p. 35, The Loafer, 10-3-2006〕 He released ''Ballad of a Modern Day Cowboy'' through his own independent label in 2006. In the United Kingdom, music critic Del Day noted, “There are few braver and indeed industrious records than this being released these days.”〔http://www.workingtitle.co/drafts/auk/modules.php?op=modload&name=Reviews&file=index&req=showcontent&id=2902〕 American historian, reporter, and music critic Joe Tennis praised Miller’s vocal work, “a perfect vehicle for these 21 tales of woe on the road.” 〔http://www.swvatoday.com/archives/article_d91eb7af-288a-540b-933f-3dc2cff5f66e.html?mode=story〕 In the Netherlands, music critic Wim Bolujt wrote, “Hoe origineel en goed gespeeld ook…” (“How original and well played too…”).〔Hanx (Netherlands), October, 2007〕 Appalachian music critic Mike Clark wrote, “He’s one heck of a musician as well, playing almost every instrument heard on ''Ballad of a Modern Day Cowboy''… Miller is one of those once-in-a-lifetime writer/performers.” 〔p. 35, The Loafer, 10-3-2006〕 After releasing the album, Miller was accepted into Harvard College, and in 2009 he was honored with an Artist Development Fellowship awarded by the Office of the Arts.〔http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2009/03/ofa-ocs-name-2009-artist-development-fellowships/〕 With equipment he acquired through this Fellowship, Miller explored new avenues for music production and also began creating customized monaural and binaural beats (see neurological research). Miller worked to popularize blues, ragtime, and bluegrass at Harvard, spreading awareness through festivals like Arts First〔http://ofa.fas.harvard.edu/m/date.php?gdate=2011-04-30〕 and Cultural Rhythms 〔http://www.thecrimson.com/article/2009/2/27/diversity-remains-focus-of-cultural-rhythms/〕 while also being selected to speak and perform at the Harvard Bluegrass Symposium.〔http://ofa.fas.harvard.edu/cal/details.php?ID=40851〕〔http://bluegrasstoday.com/bluegrass-at-harvard/〕 Scott Lozier, at the Harvard Arts Blog, wrote "I think they should start casting the Grammy statues for Clint. What a musician."〔http://ofa.fas.harvard.edu/wordpress/?p=2847〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Clint Miller (entertainer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
