    Rhett Miller, “Come Around” from The Instigator, 2002

    Lyric:
    I'm dressed all in white and I remember the night
    You came on to me and opened up my heart

    #RhettMiller is probably best known as front man/founding member of #Old97s, and with them or solo, his music is often #acoustic-based, #country-flavored music that’s come to be known as #Americana. That’s not my usual territory but sometimes a good song just gets you, y’know?

    It can be hard for me to listen to this song without getting pulled into the past and drifting off in a cloud of What Might Have Been. I clipped the quoted lyric at the couplet above as much to end it before the painful part, as to emphasize this week’s word, “open.” The verse continues:

    "I was hollow then till you filled me in, now I'm empty again
    I should have never let it start."

    When Rhett then breaks into the chorus, I feel it, kids; I feel it.

  4. Today’s listening is ‘The Traveler’, the 2015 album by Rhett Miller.

    Although titled as being a solo album by Rhett Miller (of The Old 97’s), the inner sleeve better describes this as an album by ‘Rhett Miller with Black Prairie’.

    Black Prairie were the members of The Decemberists, minus Colin Meloy, but with Annalisa Tornfelt.

    Also guesting on the album is Peter Buck.

    Recorded mostly live in the studio, this is an enjoyable album!

  6. When I wrote a song for the #GotGHolidaySpecial I asked my pal #RhettMiller to write with me & then said, “What the heck, why don’t you and the #Old97s play the band?!” Some of the most fun days on set ever. Show out Friday on #disneyplus. Link to the single now: open.spotify.com/track/7AD4sAs
