"In The Throes is a wise, wonderful and thoroughly compelling work... the revered Nashville duo's scintillating return." 8/10 Stars - Americana Album of the Month - Uncut Magazine
"If there’s any sound that resonates through Buddy and Julie’s latest, the just-released In the Throes, it’s love. Not the Hallmark-romance type, but the real thing, messy and brutal and honest and, ultimately, affirming and enduring. And weird." - Premier Guitar
"The reign of Americana's first couple continues." - Glide Magazine
"... Buddy and Julie Miller return with a gem of an album." - No Depression
"Buddy and Julie Miller have been wed for 40 years. Their latest album, In The Throes, celebrates the marvelous marriage of his rustic, raspy tenor and her eternally youthful alto." - The Associated Press
"On In The Throes, they sound as in sync as they ever have, strolling hand-in-hand through 12 tracks of soulful, self-assured Americana music that Julie wrote in a burst of creative productivity. Together, they sound patient and self-assured and perfect for each other." - Bandcamp
"In the Throes marks a striking return... an earnest and engaging set of songs that are exceedingly well-tempered and tastefully rendered as well." - American Songwriter
"Married 40 years, the team of Buddy & Julie is indispensable." - Americana Highways

PRAISE FOR BREAKDOWN ON 20th AVE. SOUTH
#2 Best Americana Album of 2019 - Mojo Magazine
“…ranks among the year’s finest.” - Rolling Stone
“…it’s something of a miracle album.” The 20 Best Country & Americana Albums of 2019 - Paste Magazine
Named one of the “No Depression Critics’ 20 Favorite Roots Music Albums of 2019”
“It's a small miracle that the Millers have completed a new album together…” - NPR Music
“At the heart of the album are the riveting idiosyncrasies of Buddy & Julie's partnership, and it's a wondrous thing to be allowed back in.” - NPR Music
“One of the most eagerly anticipated Americana albums of the year..." 8 out of 10 - Uncut Magazine
“The public absence of the Miller's singular, beloved dynamic — she the mischievous empath, he the soulful stoic — has been felt acutely, but their influence on multiple generations of artists in the Americana scene remains profound; it's evident in never-ending new interpretations of songs from their catalog; in vocal harmonizing that generates warmly affectionate friction rather than a seamless blend; in repertoires that make room for rawboned strains of Appalachian folk and honky-tonk, unguarded, diaristic singer-songwriter confession and the lurching, rhythmic looseness of early R&B and rock and roll.” - NPR Music
“Buddy and Julie Miller create their own genre on Breakdown on 20th Ave. South…The married musicians offer their own synthesis of folk, country, rock and the blues on their new album. The music that results is unsettling, with a beauty that's both comforting and soothing.” NPR Fresh Air
"It's a continuation of a musical and personal partnership that's entrancing, honest and one that makes for a mesmerizing listen." - 4 1/2 out of 5 Stars - American Songwriter
"Buddy Miller lends all the support any artist could want or need on these performances, but he's smart enough to understand Julie Miller is every bit as deserving of the spotlight. On Breakdown on 20th Ave. South, he makes room for her to shine, and it's a very welcome reminder of her gentle strengths and singular voice. We need her in these days." - 4 out of 5 Stars - AllMusic
"Buddy and Julie Miller return for their triumphant first album in a decade" - The Tennessean
"A haunting, honest collection of stories" - The Tennessean
