Rhett Miller Tours For The Traveler

RHETT MILLER OF THE OLD 97’S RELEASES 

NEW SOLO ALBUM THE TRAVELER TODAY

TOUR BEGINS TOMORROW

Rhett Miller‘s new album, The Traveler, is out today. After twenty years as the lead singer and guitarist of the Old 97’s, Miller’s restless drive to create meaningful music and perform for the audiences it inspires is clearly nowhere near slowing down.

Starting tomorrow, Rhett hits the road on a solo tour that will take him all across America as he introduces his fans to the twelve new tracks on The Traveler. Although the album was written and performed by Miller he also had some help, most notably by the members of Black Prairie, the Portland-based that plays everything from bluegrass to klezmer to country and shares members with the Decemberists. Peter Buck of REM also added additional guitar work. All upcoming tour dates are listed below.
