MATT MILLER Kicks-Off “3 Shredders Tour” w/ RENE BENTON, MANUEL & Special Guest BIKO WRIGHT


Matt Miller, tech‑death guitarist, composer, and relentless riff machine, is kicking off the 3 Shredders Tour, a lead‑guitar showcase uniting shred titan Rene Benton and explosive guitar virtuoso Manuel. Think the spirit of the G3 Tour, but cranked into the extreme‑metal realm: faster, heavier, and unapologetically intense.

The tour brings together three boundary‑pushing players at the forefront of modern metal. Joining Rene Benton on select dates is legendary bassist Kelly Conlon, known for his work on Death’s iconic "Symbolic" album and the tours that followed. His involvement injects a rare dose of metal history into an already stacked lineup.

Adding even more star power, audiences will have the chance to meet Biko Wright, Matt Miller’s vocalist and a fan‑favorite survivalist from History Channel’s Alone and Discovery’s Expedition Bigfoot. His crossover appeal continues to draw both metal fans and viewers of his television work. ​

​“We are stoked to be hitting the road this April with Manuel and Rene Benton, it’s going to be a shred guitar extravaganza! Also, get the chance to meet survival expert Biko Wright from the TV shows Alone and Expedition Bigfoot,” adds Miller. ​

With three world‑class musicians on one bill, the 3 Shredders Tour promises nights of blistering solos, technical mastery, and genre‑bending creativity.

Matt Miller’s September 2025 release, "Fiber Tormentum" on Exitus Stratagem Records, marks a major creative shift, evolving from an instrumental concept into a full band effort with vocalist Biko Wright, drummer Jordan Kelso, and bassist Justice Robinett.

“I knew it needed vocals and the input of other people to make it come to life,” says Miller.

The album blends technical death metal, power metal, and progressive elements into his heaviest and most melodic work yet, built around a loose sci‑fi concept of an alien species rewriting human DNA, an idea shaped by post‑COVID anxieties. ​

The late Joshua Nassaru Ward (Voraath) created the album’s striking artwork, depicting the agony of forced transformation, echoing the record’s themes of tension and invasion. Miller’s journey to this point includes launching his solo project in 2020, touring with Rings of Saturn and Possessed, and assembling a lineup with diverse musical backgrounds. Recording the album came with memorable moments from Wright tracking vocals between filming Expedition Bigfoot to the band getting banned from music stores for sampling high‑end instruments. Hidden somewhere on the record is Wright’s triumphant “One Take Willy” shout. ​

From his early 2017 EP to 2022’s "Monument of Velocity," Miller has steadily pushed extreme music forward.
