Rounder Records is pleased to announce the signing of John R. Miller, whose first single for the label, “Lookin’ Over My Shoulder,” is released today. Miller, who initially attracted notice for his spare, elegant, vividly imagined songs as the leader of indie band The Engine Lights, is working on his full-length label debut, set for release later this year.

“Lookin’ Over My Shoulder” wryly captures the trepidation of revisiting the site of a failed romance.
