ABOUT OLD 97'S | Old 97’s are a pioneering alt-country band whose smart, literate songwriting and high-octane live shows helped define the genre’s rise in the 1990s. Formed in Dallas, the band—led by charismatic frontman Rhett Miller—blends rootsy country, punk energy, and power-pop melodies into songs that balance wit, romance, and emotional candor. Breakthrough albums like Too Far to Care and Fight Songs established their reputation for sharp storytelling and melodic punch, while later releases continued to evolve their sound without losing urgency or heart. Renowned for their relentless touring and electric stage presence, Old 97’s remain one of the most enduring and influential bands to emerge from the American roots-rock movement.
