Local musicians (from left: Herbert “Spud” Thomas, A.J. Dillard, Jerry Owens, store owner Roy Miller, and Leonard Witt) playing at the weekly jam session at Miller’s Music Store in New Albany. Every Saturday morning, country musicians from Union County and the surrounding area gather at Roy Miller’s store for an open jam session. It is a fluid group, including both young and older musicians and different levels of playing ability. Miller originally started the jam session in New Albany’s old bus station, and it has been held his store for several years.
