Rhett Miller

Alt-country crooner, Rhett Miller, has taken time off from the Old 97s to write and record his second solo album entitled The Believer. Dropping on February 28th, the thick and syrupy record will no doubt be a favorite of sappy teenage girls the world over.
Like me.

Contrasting exuberant love songs ("Singular Girl," "My Valentine") with quieter ones of personal confusion and reluctant heartbreak ("Meteor Shower," "Fireflies"), it would be easy to pass over Miller as just another girl crazy singer/songwriter. But one listen to the title track, an ode to the late Elliott Smith and the story of Miller's own suicide attempt at age 14, and you'll know there is much more at work underneath the surface than simple teenage hormones.

If that's not reason enough, the harmonies are also killer and I totally want to make out with him.
