- Four-octave vocal range
- Possesses a 4-octave vocal range, with his longest held on note timed at 22 seconds (in Mayfield Four's "Summergirl") his longest note streak with one breath is 31 seconds in Alter Bridge's "Blackbird").
- Joined the group Alter Bridge with ex-Creed members.
- He and "The Mayfield Four" bandmate Zia Uddin were friends since elementary school, both graduating class of 1988 from Mead High School, in Spokane, Washington. The band has either broken up or is on hiatus while Myles is singing for Alter Bridge. He has been diagnosed with Tinnitus.
- Influenced by the likes of Led Zeppelin, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Guns N' Roses, and U2, as well as Radiohead, Jeff Buckley, and Marvin Gaye.
- Was offered an opportunity to join Velvet Revolver (the band made up of ex-Guns N' Roses band members), but he turned down the offer.
- Things have changed a lot in the last few years so it's a new frontier. We hope to continue to have the luxury of being a part of it. Come to think of it, since it is no longer frowned upon to use your songs in ad campaigns, should we consider aligning ourselves with Corporate America? Something tells me that "Rise Today" would be the perfect anthem for Viagra.
- As a whole, I would best describe Alter Bridge as the "Cockroach of Rock and Roll." No matter how many times people try to step on us, or flush us down the toilet, we keep coming back for more. We tend to be stubborn and resilient like that.
