This event has passed.

Named as an homage to the country ballad, Wreck of the Old 97 , the Old 97’s roared out of Dallas 20 years ago and blazed a trail through alt/country and power pop. Although they became one of the most enduring bands in the alternative country/rock catalog, the Old 97′s drew inspiration from a broad range of genres, including the twangy stomp of cowpunk and the melodies of power pop. The group spent the bulk of their first decade posed on the brink of mainstream success, issuing albums that often drew warm reviews. Old 97′s tightened their sound as the 1990s drew to a close, retaining their bar-band vigor while introducing a stronger pop/rock sound. They made their major label debut in 1997 with Too Far to Care , an album that balanced the band’s Texas traditionalism and pop leanings. Many music publications place the band among the leaders of the alt/country movement. Their most recent — and ambitious — recordings are The Grand Theatre Volume 1 and a companion recording released in 2011, The Grand Theatre Volume 2.
