  • For Immediate Release: Wilco Hosts Headcount and Patagonia Inc.'S “Vote the Environment” Campaign at U.S. Tour Stops
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: WILCO HOSTS HEADCOUNT AND PATAGONIA INC.’S “VOTE THE ENVIRONMENT” CAMPAIGN AT U.S. TOUR STOPS - Non-partisan voter registration drive paired with environmental campaign turns Wilco concerts into more than a musical experience NEW YORK, NY – With the Presidential election approaching fast, the Chicago-based rock band Wilco has turned their concerts into a call for democratic participation by hosting the non-partisan voter registration organization HeadCount and Patagonia Inc.’s “Vote the Environment” campaign at nearly every U.S tour stop. On Wilco’s upcoming tour, which begins in Chicago on Sept. 15th and ends in Los Angeles on Sept. 30th, HeadCount and Patagonia will set up side-by-side booths at each concert. Anyone in attendance at these concerts will have the chance to register to vote. Anyone will also be able to remind their elected officials that environmental issues help determine how they vote. In support of these efforts, Wilco also donated an exclusive version of their song “Whole Love” – the title track from their Grammy-nominated album The Whole Love – with all proceeds from download of this song benefitting HeadCount and its nationwide voter registration campaign. (Track can be downloaded at: http://bit.ly/LH70bE). Patagonia also produced a special edition Wilco/Vote the Environment t-shirt, with a portion of proceeds benefitting HeadCount (T-shirts can be ordered at: http://bit.ly/KE0HdV). "Given the current state of American politics," notes Jeff Tweedy, Wilco’s lead singer, "it's easy to see why people become disillusioned and don't participate. But my hope, and my reason for this partnership, is to remind people that they do have a voice, and voting is an effective and undeniable way to be heard.

  • New Wilco Album – the Whole Love – Pr Final
    NEW WILCO ALBUM – THE WHOLE LOVE – RELEASED SEPTEMBER 27 BAND’S EIGHTH STUDIO ALBUM IS FIRST FOR BAND’S NEWLY-FORMED dBpm RECORDS NORTH AMERICAN TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED Easthampton, MA - The Chicago rock band Wilco release their eighth studio album - The Whole Love - on September 27 through their newly launched dBpm Records. It follows the band’s 2009 Grammy-nominated Wilco (The Album) and was recorded at the band’s Chicago recording studio The Loft. The Whole Love features 12 new original tunes and is produced by Jeff Tweedy with Patrick Sansone and Tom Schick. The Whole Love is a veritable sonic stew, showcasing Wilco’s far-reaching musical prowess (multiple guitars, keyboards, synthesizers and percussion plus Mellotron, strings, loops and more) perfectly accompanying Jeff Tweedy’s provocative and insightful lyrics. The Whole Love opens with the seven-minute “Art of Almost” and concludes with the twelve-minute “One Sunday Morning (Song For Jane Smiley’s Boyfriend).” In between: 10 adventurous tunes (each clocking in at four minutes or less) including the current single, “I Might” which was released this past weekend at the band’s Solid Sound Festival. Coinciding with the album’s release will be the first leg of Wilco’s North American tour, with performances at Toronto’s Massey Hall, Boston’s Wang Theatre, New York City’s Central Park Summerstage, Nashville’s Ryman and more. Nick Lowe supports on all dates. Complete tour dates are listed below.

  • Rock Album Discography Last Up-Date: September 27Th, 2021
    Rock Album Discography Last up-date: September 27th, 2021 Rock Album Discography “Music was my first love, and it will be my last” was the first line of the virteous song “Music” on the album “Rebel”, which was produced by Alan Parson, sung by John Miles, and released I n 1976. From my point of view, there is no other citation, which more properly expresses the emotional impact of music to human beings. People come and go, but music remains forever, since acoustic waves are not bound to matter like monuments, paintings, or sculptures. In contrast, music as sound in general is transmitted by matter vibrations and can be reproduced independent of space and time. In this way, music is able to connect humans from the earliest high cultures to people of our present societies all over the world. Music is indeed a universal language and likely not restricted to our planetary society. The importance of music to the human society is also underlined by the Voyager mission: Both Voyager spacecrafts, which were launched at August 20th and September 05th, 1977, are bound for the stars, now, after their visits to the outer planets of our solar system (mission status: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/mission/status/). They carry a gold- plated copper phonograph record, which comprises 90 minutes of music selected from all cultures next to sounds, spoken messages, and images from our planet Earth. There is rather little hope that any extraterrestrial form of life will ever come along the Voyager spacecrafts. But if this is yet going to happen they are likely able to understand the sound of music from these records at least.

  • Austin City Limits Wraps up Season 37 with Wilco New Episode to Air
    Contact: Maury Sullivan, [email protected], 512-475-9087 Austin City Limits Wraps UP Season 37 with Wilco New Episode to Air February 4th, 2012, on PBS Stations (check local listings) AUSTIN, Texas, Jan.31, 2011-- Austin City Limits (ACL) closes out its ground-breaking 37th season on PBS stations nationwide this Saturday, Feb. 4th, with an episode dedicated to one of the most revered and dynamic rock bands of the last two decades: Wilco. Formed in 1994 from the former members of seminal alt-country outfit Uncle Tupelo, Wilco have evolved their sound wildly over the years, proving to be one of the most consistently unpredictable and compelling bands going. Over the course of eight studio albums, they've kept reinventing themselves: from the deconstructed pop of 2002's "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" and 2004's Grammy Award-winning "A Ghost Is Born" up to last year's critically lauded "The Whole Love". The band's attention to detail and focus on musicianship is legendary, having garnered them a spot in the rock pantheon and a loyal following. "Austin City Limits is practically a second home for Wilco," said Terry Lickona, ACL Executive Producer. "They epitomize in so many ways the values, the authenticity and originality that ACL stands for. It's fascinating to see how much they've grown and evolved in their four appearances on the show - each different and stronger than the last. This is Wilco at their best." This time around, Wilco took full advantage of ACL's new home at The Moody Theater with full- throated renditions of fan favorites from their past catalog like "War On War" and "Far Far Away" as well as new cuts "Black Moon" and "Born Alone".

It’s quite possible that you’re new to this Nicole Goodwin whole Melisma thing. And it’s not really your fault. WIf it’s anyone’s fault, it’s ours. We’ve gone through CONTRIBUTING some rough patches in the last two years- it turns out that WRITERS a bunch of punks sometimes have a hard time being ripped Jenna Buckle away from their three-piece drum sets and three-stringed Nicole Goodwin bass guitars to make a magazine. Luckily for us metallic Devin Ivy covers are the solution to all of the world’s problems. Audrey G. Miller I like to think that Melisma has simply been feeling Sasha Reed sympathetic pains akin everyone else’s following financial bullshit that went down in 2008 and 2009, which can only CONTRIBUTING be a reflection of just how goddamn cultured the magazine ARTISTS is. But Melisma has been thinking. It took a moment Coorain Devin to look at itself mirrored ad infinitum in its own shiny-ass Devin Ivy cover. Funny things happen when mirrors face each other. Before getting too caught up with the implications of an infinite descent into itself, though, it ordered and devoured a large Helen’s Bluezone with its friends. Because it realized that the point at the center of all those mirrored mirrors is absolutely ridiculous. Somehow the Absurd always ends up winning out. So let’s embrace it.
