Conventional wisdom places the band at the forefront of a musical movement that would come to be known as alternative country, but, as the New York Times so succinctly put it, their sound always leaned more toward the Clash than the Carter Family. Fueled by breakneck tempos, distorted guitars, and wry storytelling, the foursome built a reputation for high-energy albums and even higher energy shows, earning themselves performances everywhere from Conan and Letterman to Bonnaroo and Lollaplooza alongside countless rave reviews. NPR lauded the group as a pioneering force, while Rolling Stone hailed their musics whiskey-wrecked nihilism and slow-burn heartbreak, and The New Yorker praised their songwriting as blistered, blasted, and brilliant. On top of his prodigious output with Old 97s, Miller simultaneously established himself as a prolific solo artist, as well, releasing eight studio albums under his own name that garnered similarly wide-ranging acclaim and landed in a slew of prominent film and television soundtracks. A gifted writer beyond his music, Miller also contributed essays and short stories to The Atlantic, Salon, McSweeneys, and Sports Illustrated among others, and in 2019, he released his debut book, a collection of poetry for children, via Little, Brown and Company.
