 The next year, Buddy and Julie Miller were going to do a big tour of Holland and headline Greenbelt. They felt they couldn't do this without a backing band, so they asked The Electrics to be their backing band. The became good friends with the band, and this led to The Electrics flying the entire band to Nashville, Tennessee to record their next album //The Whole Shebang!// with Buddy Miller. The band had a great experience recording with Miller, and the resulting album "defined our sound a lot better" according to Horner.
-The Electrics were getting noticed in the United States, so they soon signed to [[5 Minute Walk]] / [[Sara Bellum Records]]. Their first album for their new label was a 1997 self-titled album that was mostly re-recordings of several older songs of theirs. That album was engineered and produced by Masaki Li ([[The Lonely Now]], [[Dimestore Prophets]], etc). Their next album for [[5 Minute Walk]] was 1998's //Livin' It Up When I Die//. That album was produced by [[Phil Madeira]] and engineered by Jordan Richter ([[This Train]]).

 During the tour for //Livin' It Up When I Die//, Horner found  out that the opening act [[The Smiley Kids]] was not making enough money to pay for hotel rooms or food. Horner called up the label head to ask about this, but found the label would not budge on how much money they were keeping of the band's sales. The head of the label claimed it was a fair deal. Horner threatened to tell the audience at every show about this and let them decide if it was fair, and that was the end of the relationship between The Electrics and [[5 Minute Walk]].
