Summer Breeze Music Project

The Summer Breeze Music Project by Bill Miles is a musical solo performance act with a repertoire of more than 80 popular/easy listening songs primarily from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s. In this musical project Bill sings and accompanies himself on either piano or acoustic guitar with additional supporting background parts which he composed and arranged using MIDI technology. The goals of the Summer Breeze Music Project are:

- Provide a musical tribute to the well known songs and original musical artists.

- Convey a sense of appreciation for music from that era.

- Kindle warm feelings and fond memories from that "Feel Good" time in pop music history.
