Returning to Tornillo TX, the birthplace of Too Far To Care, Old 97’s hoped to make something where fans would say, ‘This band hasn’t lost a step in twenty-some years.’ 

The result is the eleven songs of Graveyard Whistling, from a group that has earned the respect and veneration due to one of the pioneers of the alt-country movement, while still retaining the raucous energy, deceptive cleverness, and knockabout spirit that first distinguished them from the pack. 

RELEASE DATE: February 24, 2017

Old 97’s Graveyard Whistling Vinyl

Old 97’s return with Twelfth, their aptly titled 12th studio album, recorded this spring in Nashville, Tennessee between a tornado and a pandemic. Loose and raw, the record is an ecstatic celebration of survival, a resounding ode to endurance and resilience from a veteran group that refuses to rest on their considerable laurels. Working out of Sputnik Sound in Nashville with GRAMMY-winning producer Vance Powell, the resulting album boasts all the hallmarks of a classic Old 97’s record (sex and booze, laughter and tears, poetry and blasphemy). It also showcases a newfound perspective in its writing and craftsmanship, a maturity and appreciation that can only come with age and experience. Perhaps the band is growing up; maybe they’re just getting started. Either way, Old 97’s have never been happier to be alive.

Most Messed Up is a revealing, 12-track meditation on 20 years in music that finds the Old 97's at their raucous, boozy best. It’s “a rock opera, a way-off Broadway musical about a musician’s life, loves and lubrication,” says music critic Bill Flanagan. Recorded in Austin and produced by Salim Nourallah, Most Messed Up also features guest appearances by Tommy Stinson (The Replacements, Guns N’ Roses) and Jon Rauhouse (Neko Case) on lap-steel.
 
Titles like “Wasted,” “Intervention,” “Wheels Off,” “Let’s Get Drunk &amp; Get It On,” and “Most Messed Up” hint at the kind of narrators frontman Rhett Miller likes to inhabit — men who possess an appetite for indulgence and won’t let a few bad decisions get in the way of a good story. The magic in Miller’s songwriting lies in the depth that he lends his characters. Upon closer inspection, the hard partying and endless pursuit of a good time often reveals itself to be a Band-Aid covering up deeper wounds and emotional scars. “There’s a lot of darkness hidden in this record,” Miller explains.

Old 97's WRECK YOUR LIFE CD

Old 97's introduce The Grand Theatre Vol. 2, their ninth studio album, available July 5th via New West Records. The new record is a companion to the critically acclaimed The Grand Theatre Volume One, which received 3 1/2 stars in both Rolling Stone and American Songwriter. Released less than a year since their last effort, The Grand Theatre Vol. 2 features 13 brand new songs and is once again produced by Salim Nourallah (The Grand Theatre Volume One and Blame It On Gravity.)
 
"Vol. 2 expands on the themes found in Volume One both sonically and lyrically," explains Miller. "We delved further into our experiments in gritty garage rock and at times spun further into lush psychedelia. Like Volume One, you ll find narratives that are stunted and strange." Track Listing: 
1. Brown Haired Daughter 
2. I m A Trainwreck 
3. Perfume 
4. The Actor 
5. No Simple Machine 
6. White Port 
7. Ivy 
8. Manhattan (I m Done) 
9. Marquita 
10. Bright Spark (See What I Mean) 
11. Visiting Hours 
12. How Lovely All It Was 
13. You Call It Rain
