Scott Miller had a prolific musical career before the Loud Family came along. He released several albums in the 1980s with his band Game Theory.

Despite the fact that Game Theory's last album, 2 Steps From the Middle Ages, was released almost 2 decades ago, there is still a lot of interest in Scott's old band, as the sky-high prices paid on eBay for used copies of the band's out-of-print CDs prove. Rights issues have kept them from being rereleased, but we'll try to make them available for listening from time to time (check out the music player on the site's main page).
