Veteran Texas rockers return with songs from their latest album, American Primitive, plus fan favorites.
Alt-country pioneers Old 97’s return to Fort Collins on Friday, July 24, for an evening of high-energy rock and Americana at Washington’s. The Dallas-based band, known for blending country roots with punk-inspired energy, is touring behind its 13th studio album, American Primitive.
Led by singer and guitarist Rhett Miller, the quartet has spent nearly three decades building a reputation for electrifying live performances. Their latest album embraces a raw, instinctive sound while tackling themes of love, mental health, and resilience. Opening the evening is singer-songwriter River Shook.
