What critics are saying:
?DAZZLED! ? musical excellence, superb phrasing and a burnished top register that rings with authority. As if that weren?t enough, his taste is superb in picking repertoire that?s interesting, unusual and unappreciated ? not to mention he?s handsome charming and funny!? David Hurst / Show Business
"Miles Phillips is an actor/singer. He's also a very smart and perceptive artist. When he puts on a show you can expect an act as rich as a seven layer cake, with seven levels of meaning as well . . . He's comfortable singing in a variety of styles that segue easily from standards to pop and rock, but all of his material is lyric driven. And all of it is carefully chosen to explore the theme of his show; as a consequence, he often unearths fresh perspectives out of songs you thought you knew. He makes those new perspectives stick thanks to his skills as an actor. One of the - if not the - most conceptually satisfying show of the year, it is performed with considerable charm, grace, and style."

"To invoke and old but pleasant saying, Phillips has a way about him. That way is made up of equal parts steel-girder-strong baritone and take-me-as-I-am personality ... exquisite ... genuinely gracious ... that's what I call intimate-room savoir-faire." David Finkle / Back Stage
