"Buddy & Julie Miller" is a 2001 album by Buddy and Julie Miller. Prior to this recording the husband and wife singer-songwriters had each made appearances on the other's solo recordings, but this disc marked their first official release as a duo. The music has been described as more rock based than their earlier, traditional-folk recordings. The majority of the songs were penned by Julie and rounded out by the duo's co-write, "Dirty Water" and a few covers of songs by folk/rock icons Richard Thompson, Utah Phillips and Bob Dylan.

The album was well-received by critics and fans of Americana/folk music. It was named "Album of the Year" at the first annual awards of the Americana Music Association. [http://www.americanamusic.org/site.php?content=honors_awards "Honors, Awards"] , Americana Music Association, americanamusic.org] The album was the 17th most played recording of 2001 by FolkDJ-L DJs and the 4th most played disc in September 2001.
