“It’s one of the highlights of my life so far”— Alex MillerNASHVILLE, TN, UNITED STATES, July 18, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Alex Miller, accompanied by his band The Kentucky Kowboys, marked their first-ever international performance last weekend at the highly regarded Norsk Countrytreff Festival located in Breim, Norway. The four-day gathering drew over 29,000 Country music enthusiasts, featuring a packed dance floor and lively audiences. “People were lined up all along the front of the stage,” Alex observed. “Those folks love Country music, and I was blown away by their response.” Miller and his group delivered a set blending original tracks from his current album, MORE COUNTRY THAN YOU (Billy Jam Records), alongside Country standards from various decades. “It was one of the highlights of my life so far,” Alex stated. “I’d love to go back and explore some more.”
Judy Seale International, Inc. handled the festival booking, which also featured American performers Joshua Ray Walker, Alana Springsteen and Frankie Ballard. Beyond Alex’s full-band show at Norsk Countrytreff, Miller and his guitarist Andrew Lambie energized the historic Breim Church, constructed in 1886. “The church was full on amazing,” Alex recalled. “It’s beautiful and the acoustics were incredible. It was really an emotional experience for us.” This included performing his own song “My Daddy’s Dad,” along with the Hank Williams, Sr. Gospel piece “I’m Gonna Sing,” which he recorded with the Oak Ridge Boys.
Miller made the most of his initial trip overseas, setting aside time for sightseeing with his band members Andrew Lambie (Electric Guitar), Austin Clark (Drums, Percussion), Brian Zonn (Bass) and Alden Oldfield (Steel Guitar). The group visited the Holvik Fossen waterfall, admired glacier vistas, drank pristine water from mountain streams and even went for a swim in a 35-degree glacial lake. “It took a little bit of liquid courage – and man, that water was so cold – but I couldn’t miss the chance to say, ‘I’ve done that’ … not everyone made the leap.”
Reflecting on the “beautiful differences” he encountered, Miller highlighted the 24-hour daylight, the cooler climate and, naturally, the cuisine. “It just tastes better over there,” Alex raved. “Even the McDonald’s® is better and different. They have a full menu– you could buy a steak at MacD’s!” Staying true to his adventurous nature and love of fine food, Miller sampled moose, whale burger and reindeer jerky. “And the bread over there is insane,” he says. “It’s like a whole ‘nother country over there,” he exclaims with zero irony and endless enthusiasm. “I loved everything about it.”
Now that he is back in the United States, Miller has returned to his usual joyful schedule. He is composing new songs and getting ready for selected tour appearances, which include:
