Rhett Miller fans eager for a chance to see him live can breathe easy: the Old 97's frontman will perform a solo show Friday, November 21 at The Granada Theater. Brent Best of the Drams and Slobberbone will open the show, which will be MC'd by Gordon Keith.

The show is a benefit for the Breathe Easy Foundation, which raises funds for treatment of cystic fibrosis, and is part of the CF Concert Series. Last year Miller performed with 97's bandmate Murry Hammond for the same cause. Tickets are $25 for the little people and $75 for VIPs here.
