As John R. Miller began work on his fourth album, he set out to challenge himself both creatively and geographically. The result is Miller’s most ambitious work to date — a spacious, textured collection, blending road-worn storytelling, fuzzy atmospheres, and reflections on movement, memory, and change. Rooted in his West Virginia past yet shaped by constant travel, The Great Unknowing captures an artist trusting the process, embracing risk, and letting the groove lead the way.
