Biography

The Old 97's, a prominent alt-country band, blend power pop melodies with classic country elements, led by guitarist Ken Bethea and vocalist Rhett Miller. Despite positive reviews and a loyal following, they remained on the fringes of mainstream success, producing spirited albums like Most Messed Up, Twelfth, and American Primitive. Originating from a short-lived project with Murry Hammond, Miller's storytelling prowess and musical dedication laid the foundation for the band's sound, culminating in their debut album Hitchhike to Rhome and subsequent success with Wreck Your Life and Too Far to Care.

Following a series of solo endeavors and lineup changes, the Old 97's continued to evolve their pop-influenced sound with releases like Satellite Rides and Blame It on Gravity. Their longevity as a band was celebrated with their 12th album, Twelfth, in 2020, as they navigated personal challenges and major life events. Rhett Miller's solo career also flourished with releases like The Messenger and The Misfit, while the band's appearance on The Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special showcased their enduring musical contributions. In 2024, the Old 97's embraced a more spontaneous approach with American Primitive, featuring collaborations with notable artists like Peter Buck and Scott McCaughey.
