The Considerators is an alternative rock band that started in an Orlando recording studio. The goal was to record the songs of Warren Samuel Miller and his co-writers and friends, with Guy Walker playing guitars and bass and co-producing.

The band’s 2017 debut album, Consider This, has had radio play around the world, and garnered the band a small but dedicated following from the video for “Whatever Happened to Baby Jane” on YouTube.

Their sophomore effort, When I Turned Around, was released on October 15, 2020. Although much of the studio work was recorded before COVID-19 shut down both studio work and live gigs, Warren and Guy finished the album over the following months, thanks to shared software, Dropbox and unlimited telephone minutes.

The Considerators’ original songs have a classic rock sound that also touches on country-rock, reggae, classic R&B and pop. But in the end, The Considerators sound like … just The Considerators. Several of the members of the Florida-based band have known each other and played together for decades. And although the band is new, its members have played and/or recorded with the Backstreet Boys, Brian Littrell, The Diamonds and Jon Secada (among others), and performed on stages from the Beacon Theater in New York to the Grand Ol' Opry in Nashville and the Universal Amphitheater in Los Angeles.

Warren invented the band name, he says, out of necessity. “I wanted a band name that sounded like an L.A. garage band in the '60s, or a New Orleans funk band … but all the words I liked were taken. The Byrds, The Grass Roots, Li'l Queenie and the Percolators, The Seeds, The Meters, The Subdudes, The Hooters … I couldn't find anything that good. So I invented a word. And it fits: We’ll consider a lot of things, and in the end, we’re very considerate people.”

The pandemic knocked The Considerators out of many live performance opportunities — just as they were starting to gig — but the band hopes to to come to a venue near you in the near future.
