Who is Dirt Miller? "Dirt Miller is a multi-instrumentalist and songwriter from Spokane WA who has been entrenched in music his entire life. With a saga to tell about a life lived hard, and a recovery fought for even harder, Dirt's guitar virtuosity combined with his unique singing style and interpretation of humble melodies and lyrics paint a lush scenario of Americana soul. His early influences like Bob Dylan, Cat Stevens, James Taylor, and Led Zeppelin, echo in his songs. Music that comes from pure instinct and deep roots in American folklore and blues history, influenced by the majestic lands of this country and spirituality. Dirt Miller’s music (co-produced by composer Max DiCarlo) is comprised of real instrumentation- cellos, violins and percussion creating a surreal world of images and emotion. Telling the human story with eloquence, fierceness, beauty and a personal edge that hearkens to one's inner soul, Dirt showcases a dynamic mastery of technical guitar playing matched with a gritty sultry voice that is sure to cut straight to your heart strings-always leaving you wanting more. All written from his true-life experience, the music speaks for itself! Dirt is represented by Manager Dianne Copeland (Copeland Entertainment) and by William Morris Endeavor (WME)."
@Colleen Thanks for the information!! I was wondering about the cellos and other instruments as they told SUCH a story in this piece. And it's astonishing to me how artists like him, as well as Ren have been essentially blurred from our view; especially here in the States. Again, thank you for taking the time to comment here and let us viewers know a little more ❤
I am absolutely loving how Ren is creating a whirlwind of support for other independent artists and reacters. I can see it quickly turning into a tornado of kindness and paying it forward. Here's to the rise of the underrated, underappreciated, undervalued, unheard-of independent artists. I hope this is the revolution of the music industry. Ren has the potential to upend things and break the hold that the industry has on the masses. Dirt is amazing, and I'm so glad Ren put us all onto him. Fantastic breakdown and reaction. ❤
@@stranger2Utube 🥰 It's amazing that this all started just a couple of months ago and now its turning into something bigger than all of us. (I'm sis, by the way. I know the profile pic throws people off) I'm so incredibly grateful to be here to witness this phenomenon.
You have to check out He Was A Good Man, D1, and Guitar Symphony. Ren knows what he is about, and I'm glad Dirt Miller didn't give up before we all found him.
Dirt Miller has yet to have 100K views on any of his videos on his channel. He hasn't even topped 10K subscribers. As of this moment. He's close and he'll be topping it soon thanks to Ren. To appreciate just how good of a guitar player he is you must do "Guitar Symphony". Thanks to you and all the other first reactors for making it possible for folk like Ren and Dirt Miller to reach other folk. And to anyone else here? Like and subscribe the hell out of Dirt. We can't wait for "big labels" to give us music like this. Blessings.
You done it again! Your attention to detail and ability to see bigger picture is next level! I needed this sort of analysis. Always looking forward to your videos! Thank you!
Eddy Merckx is a legendary belgian cyclist who won the Tour de France five times (and 6 other Grand Tours). He's quite the icon in cycling circles, defo in Europe (where the sport is more prelevant) and a national hero to us Belgians. Not without controversy, but yeah , different times so...
Recently discovered #DirtMiller thanks to #RenMakesMusic and I got hooked immediately. He's an incredible artist who {while not exactly alike} makes me think of the one and only Mr. Willie Nelson.
"So Rob Zombie stole Snoop Doggs outfit" (comment of the year for sure)!!!!!🤣🤣🤣. Also, your ability to notice small details in every video really amazes me. WELL DONE SIR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm here straight from your reaction to Hi Ren and I already see a pattern here. MAD attention to detail while still remaining emotional. And Ren send to be just a fountain of good that keeps on giving, because like everybody else I discovered through him, Dirt Miller is just amazing, so glad you're spreading the word. ❤
Really enjoyed your reaction, and thanks for catching some of the lyrics hadn't been able to. I really need to get some headphones so I can experience his music even more intimately. Love every song I've been able to find of his so far. Just freaking beautiful work.
Love EVERY song on Dirt's channel. Here's my favs: Guitar Symphony- stunning instrumental. He Was a Good Man- beautiful, heart-warming tribute Also D1- heart-wrenching song.
I've been listening to Dirt non stop for 5 days now, he's incredibly talented. His vocals burn right into my soul. Loving your reaction💓. Check out D1, blinded by substance, blood in the water and roll the dice. Actually all his tracks are mindblowing. I really hope he starts to get the recognition he deserves just like Ren has. At 48 I'd kind of resigned myself to not finding artists that blow me away anymore, I'm so glad I've been proved wrong . Dirt Miller seems to be a beautiful soul 💖💖
Love the detailed breakdown you did which filled in some blanks for me! Thanks for that! Isn't Dirt just an amazing artist! So creative with the video and that voice that cuts deep! The inner biker chick in me just wants to ride into the sunset with him 😊great reaction 😊😅
I've seen this video several times, and the song haunts me throughout each day, but I was always so focused on the song that I wasn't picking up on the symbolic elements of the videography until you mentioned them. I didn't even notice the "Don't f*** with me" graffiti behind him when he's singing the chorus. Thanks for the breakdown! 🤠
Sweety, loved your interpreation and catching some things that can be easily missed...keep doing what you are doing honey and yes, Ren sent us to Dirt and your reactions are really elevating the experience xxx Guitar Symphony is amazing xx
Yeah, your initial facial expression says it all when you first hear him sing, can tell you felt it, it's such a great voice, it's unique. Like Ren, another awesome artist! I've got guitar symphony on repeat at the moment, that guitar work blew me away. This is such great artististry, interesting and well thought out as far as I can tell visuals for the video, it's wicked. We're lucky this year to discover two brilliant creatives! The quality is top notch! You've got a good eye for detail man! 👍 Really liking your break down! 9:01 You're associations between the visual art and writing is 🤯 so good, I love it! Irrelevant but I love his trousers, would like to pair them up with a cropped black tank top and a pair of dockers! 😂😂 for a woman's style obviously. He's got it down perfectly for a bloke. Just checked out who Eddie Merckz is, a top cyclist...takes some serious shit to push through on a tournament but to win it and set world records, yeah see that grit! ua-cam.com/video/BRSwnD3WNNo/v-deo.html Have you seen downhill Mountain bikers? They do crazy, crazy shit. Mind you the Isle of Man TT tournament is proper nuts man...crazy, crazy f***ker's😂😂 LOVE IT! Their friends and family might not so much, I can't imagine what their girlfriends and wives go through. But it's awesome to watch!
I love your analysis, helps to appreciate the song, love your channel, to me it’s definitely one the best. Dirt Miller is amazing, so glad you are putting a spotlight on him ❤️ it’s a powerful feeling to listen to the talented authentic musicians that we discovered rather than being spoon fed by the industry. Can’t wait for more reactions. I actually don’t like calling it a “reaction”, analysis is more appropriate ❤️
That was an amazing reaction and breakdown. I haven't seen him comment on any reactors reactions of his songs but I hope he's at least watching them because all I've seen in positivity and love.
What a great find thanks for Ren pointing the direction. Storytellin fresh style. For a complete different direction into a great song check out Kelvyn Colt the song Shorty. Would love to see your reaction and insights on it. Keep dancing in the sunshine peace out!
I love your breakdowns. Like Knox Hill catches every single bar and breaks down patterns, you listen to the lyrics but also catch every visual. I can see your mind working when you watch.
I love,love,love this song and listened about 40 times to it since I watched your reaction for the first time.And there will follow hundreds more for sure.I hoped you would react to it after Ren announced this artist/song!Great job btw,Billy.And I'm glad Dirt Miller felt the same😊
What bothers me is that both Ren and Dirt has been there for years but I had to find them on my own. Will give my radio a 12 gauge - it's a waste of time and space.
I'm SO glad I've listened to this at least 5 times in the past week...it made your reaction to this PERFECT 👏👏👏 I LOVED your breakdown ❤❤❤❤ thank you 😎
I love his voice too, I was sent by Ren to him too. At first I was surprised at his voice but it grabbed me too. Subbed. I get nomad vibes from him, I'm one as well. But I love the way you think! Do you listen to Falling in Reverse? I started watching reaction videos when I saw 'Watch the World Burn ' by them. Just trying to get to know you.
Eddie Merckz is a cyclist, Belgian I think.... think Lance Armstrong. Pretty obscure reference for the middle of a US desert (what do you mean who's Lance Armstrong)
I am free cos God made me that way. I refuse to be controlled by govt, by self, by sin or Satan. We are free to be who we are and do what we choose, not work a dear end grind for 40 hours a week for the little pittance they pay, and it's never enough to cover all the bills. Are we gonna rise above the bs and get outta this hole, or just keep digging deeper as time goes on?!!!!!
Eddie Merckx - alleged to be greatest cyclist of all time (winning more stages of grand tours and major cycling races than anyone in history) , despite testing positive for performance enhancing drugs at least 4 times. His fans will argue that his cheating is justified as all the other top cyclists were doing it in his era. Far be it from me to judge!
Thanks for your support homie! Was a legit breakdown 🙏
My pleasure man! You have great artistic vision 🤟
Dirt Miller 🔥
I’m glad Ren pointed us here. This guy is great. I heard his guitar symphony. Man, his fingers are fast!

That’s cool he is from the northwest. He reminds me of a cross between layne Stayle and baby gramps
@@skysteppesI agree. He totally reminds me of Layne Staley.

@@Lulabee2024 This information was pretty much all I could find online about Dirt Miller. I am hopeful it is accurate. Hello from 🇨🇦.
Thanks for the insight! Definitely more than meets the eye with Dirt
Dirt miller roll the dice next it’s 🔥🔥🔥
Water In My Wine is my fav Dirt Miller song, SnakeVenomV

💯 Couldn't agree more. Thanks for being part of it all!
Brother, just before I read your comment I teared up thinking about the same exact thing you just expressed ❤

I hope you listen to his ‘He Was A Good Man’ next … HAUNTING and raw!
He’s lost somebody dear to him, man, you know it…
@@jipsigal I caught it a day or so after he put it out, and I can concur. Fabulous. Top tier artistry with heart.
You have to check out He Was A Good Man, D1, and Guitar Symphony. Ren knows what he is about, and I'm glad Dirt Miller didn't give up before we all found him.
I like this but I love Troubled by Silence - think you would too! X
All the songs on Mr Dirts channel are fantastic. More Dirt!!
So raw and gritty and creative! I'm liking the taste of Dirt! Im hooked! Thank you Ren! Great detailed reaction, thank you!
An interesting rap/rock collaboration you might want to check out: "Wax, Herbal T, Dirt Miller: "Let it Burn" (lyric video)".
It takes 2 seconds to see why Ren loves this. It's the REAL.
Dirt Miller has yet to have 100K views on any of his videos on his channel. He hasn't even topped 10K subscribers. As of this moment. He's close and he'll be topping it soon thanks to Ren.

Love He was a Good Man and Guitar Symphony the most.
Loved that 😍🔥 especially the Rob Zombie Snoop Dog comment 😂❤️
Ren sent me to check him out too and I was blown away. I would highly recommend his song 'D1' its beautiful
You done it again! Your attention to detail and ability to see bigger picture is next level! I needed this sort of analysis. Always looking forward to your videos! Thank you!
I appreciate that!
This was so wonderful. I am so happy right now. Thanks for the joy. 😄

Who would’ve thought In The Land Plenty You would end up with Nothing that Feeds Your Soul! We need More Dirt ❤❤❤
I felt the exact same when I first heard his voice. So unique and different.
Recently discovered #DirtMiller thanks to #RenMakesMusic and I got hooked immediately. He's an incredible artist who {while not exactly alike} makes me think of the one and only Mr. Willie Nelson.

😂 Much love
So many Thanks to Ren for introducing us to this Cat!!!
Your eye and ear for all small details makes your reaction a great experience and really enhance the artist you're watching. Thanks.
I appreciate hearing that. Thank you!
Another tidbit of info: The location of this video is The International Car Forest of the Last Church, located near Goldfield, Nevada.
I was wondering where it was, thank you.
Definitely check out D1 by Dirt
Love your breakdowns. You are on the level of Knox Hill. You deserve an influx of subscribers. 😊❤
Yep! Reminds me of Knox, quick and intelligent breakdowns, love this guy!
That means a lot. Seriously thank y'all ❤
I'm here straight from your reaction to Hi Ren and I already see a pattern here. MAD attention to detail while still remaining emotional.
