Described as “one of the best acoustic pickers on the scene today,” Morin brings together the great musical traditions of America like no other. With deft fingerstyle guitar and vocals that alternately convey melodic elation and gritty world-weariness, Morin crafts an inimitable style often characterized as roots-infused Native Americana with hints of bluegrass, folk, blues, and rock. He has performed at renowned venues across the globe, including the Kennedy Center and Lincoln Center, and is the recipient of numerous awards and accolades. “'Cary Morin is a unique and brilliant guitar player, songwriter and singer,’ says renowned folk musician David Bromberg, extolling the virtues of one of his favorite players. ‘It’s hard to pick out what he does best. As a guitar player, I have huge respect for Cary’s style and technique on the guitar. If you haven’t heard him yet, you should. Try to remember that it’s only one guitar.’” wrote Dan Forte for Taylor Wood & Steel Magazine, June 2018. Hazel Miller is not just a great singer; "She is a force of nature!" quotes the Rocky Mountain News. Her voice has been called "stunning, moving and powerful." Hazel has been a sought-after performer in Colorado for more than three decades. The present members are a tight-knit family of great musicians and singers. The band performs an eclectic blend of jazz, R&B, blues, soul-R&B, and original music. Hazel Miller and the Collective’s music is designed to make the audience dance and sing along. Hazel Miller and the Collective has opened for Al Green, Herbie Hancock, James Brown, India Arie, Michael Mc Donald, and Gladys Knight and has toured internationally. Her music can be heard on many local radio stations: KOA, KBCO, KUVO, KRFC, KOTO, and KCNU. Nationally, SiriusXM Radio plays her music on the “Real Jazz” and “B. B. King’s Bluesville” stations.
