Libby Miller, a professor of art history at Whitman College, is also a classically trained cellist and vocalist who grew up in a musical family in Brussels, Belgium. She plays with the group Rogue Lobster, which has played over 200 shows and released three full-length albums of original music. Essentially bluegrass in their instrumentation, their style is a bit harder to pin down - ranging from traditional bluegrass to Americana and modern folk, with particular focus on three-part harmonies and instrumental leads.
