Justin Miller and The Elements of Sound

Back by popular demand, Southern Indiana’s own Justin Miller and The Elements of Sound returns to Top Hill Recording Podcast! Blending rock, folk, pop, blues, and hip hop into a style that’s uniquely their own, this genre-bending group has become a staple of the Kentuckiana music scene.Fronted by multi-instrumentalist and looping pioneer Justin Miller—who got his start beatboxing and playing acoustic guitar in Louisville—the current lineup features Noel Calilung on bass, Nate King on drums, Jared Burch on keys, Good Time Charlie Dixon on djembe, and Lance Oliphant on guitar. Together, they form a dynamic and soulful crew that’s as tight-knit as the local music community they help uplift.Since 2017, Elements of Sound has been grinding it out on the grassroots circuit—lighting up festivals, bar stages, and backyards nearly every weekend. Tune in as we catch up with the band to talk creative process, collaboration, and what’s next for one of the region’s hardest-working groups.
