Tweedy reflects on this godawful year, with lyrics of longing, homesickness, fear, and hope." - Esquire ​ “Listening to [Love Is The King]...deepens the reading — and vice versa — as sounds emerge ​ ​ from songs in ways you might not have heard before.

  • Wilco-Songs Minimalistisch
    Folkdays … Wilco-Songs minimalistisch Musik | Jeff Tweedy: Together At Last Jeff Tweedy, das ist einerseits ein Singer-Songwriter, andererseits ist er der Macher von Wilco in Zusammenarbeit mit John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, Mikael Jorgensen, Nels Cline und Pat Sansone. Er war auch einmal mit dem Band-Projekt Golden Smog zu hören und es gibt neue Bands von ihm genannt Loose Fur und Tweedy. Das zuerst kurz als Fakten. Von TINA KAROLINA STAUNER Das neue Album von Jeff Tweedy ›Together At Last‹ ist wie ein Überbleibsel aus einer Zeit, in der die Freude Americana, Alternative Country und Neofolk zu hören manchmal fast ungetrübt war. Kein Mainstream laberte irgendeinen Klimbim dazwischen und neben Befindlichkeits- und Beziehungstexten war Sozial- und Gesellschaftskritik in Lyrics ein Zeichen für Anspruch und Niveau. Die Chicagoer Independent-Band Wilco hatte sich mit den ersten Alben in den 1990er Jahren mit Leib und Seele in den Spirit einer ganzen Independent-Generation gespielt. Entstanden aus Uncle Tupelo war Wilco immer wichtig im Diskurs. Bezogen auf traditionelles Wissen über Country und Folk hatte die Band einen ureigenen Sound und integrierte manchmal auch neue und elektronische Klänge in den Kontext. Mittlerweile scheint Jeff Tweedy teils zynisch bis zum geht-nicht-mehr und nach ›Star Wars‹ und ›Schmilco‹ mit Cover-Artwork wie ein Cartoon kam ein ›Together At Last‹. Vergangenheit ist das Woody Guthrie Project, das er mit Nora Guthrie und Billy Bragg vor Jahren veröffentlichte. Vergangenheit sind die frühen Independent-Jahre, wenn es überhaupt noch Leute gibt, die sich daran erinnern. Vergangenheit ist die Band-Dokumentation ›Man in the Sand‹. Vergangenheit sind Songs wie ›In A Future Age‹.

I believe my brain loves the intersection of art, craft, and technology.

  • Split Single Announces New Album, Amplificado, out June 25Th on Inside Outside Records
    April 27, 2021 For Immediate Release Split Single Announces New Album, Amplificado, Out June 25th on Inside Outside Records Watch Video for Lead Single, "(Nothing You Can Do To) End This Love" Split Single, the collective project of Chicago-based musician Jason Narducy (Bob Mould Band, Superchunk, Verbow), announces their new album, Amplificado, out June 25th on Inside Outside Records. Recorded at Electrical Audio in Chicago by Narducy (guitar/vocals), REM’s Mike Mills (bass), Jon Wurster (drums), Amplificado is a tight collection of rock songs dealing with the anxiety of living through a chaotic and cruel Republican majority rule and under the limitations of a worldwide pandemic. The new album comes nearly five years aer the release of Split Single’s 2016 album, Metal Frames, “a powerhouse pop record that prides itself on tenacious vocals and resolute rhythm guitar” (Stereogum) recorded with Wurster and Wilco’s John Sitrratt, and last year’s acclaimed, Jeff Award-nominated production of Verböten, a musical inspired by Narducy’s now-seminal childhood punk rock band of the same name. In conjunction with today’s announcement, Split Single presents the album’s lead single, “(Nothing You Can Do To) End This Love,” a message of love and support to the LGBTQ+ community. “The chords and melody for this song sounded like defiance to me,” says Narducy. “I wanted to write a lyric that matched this sonic mood. The first words that came into my head were ‘She loves her and he loves him.’ So it ended up being an unconventional love song. I’m expressing support and joy for diverse couples everywhere, including but not only my friends that appear in the video.” The charming accompanying video was directed by Jamie Fleischel.

Join Hale for a visual, musical journey over the last 50 years complete with his memorable insights, commentary and illumination. Or not. On Friday, August 11, Hale has put together a new evening featuring showcasing the 7 Worlds Collide / The Sun Came Out concert films. Crowded House frontman Neil Finn has recorded many successful solo albums as well as assembled an amazing cast of musicians for the 7 Worlds Collide project, a live recording & concert film culled from a series of five shows recorded at the St James theatre in New Zealand in 2001.

  • Philips Lighting Makes Grammy-Winning Alt Rockers Wilco’
    Philips Lighting makes Grammy-winning alt rockers Wilco’s artistic stage set shine | 1 Philips VL4000 Spot luminaire “integral” to theatrical design of Wilco’s world tour bringing to life visual concept inspired by Santa Fe temple Dallas, Texas – Philips Lighting (Euronext Amsterdam ticker: LIGHT), a global leader in lighting, today announced that its stage lighting is providing lighting effects central to the artistic stage design of the Chicago-based alternative rock legends Wilco on the band’s world tour. In support of the tenth studio album, Schmilco, the tour is visiting the US, Europe and South America. Lighting designer Jeremy Roth has pronounced the Philips Vari-Lite VL4000 Spot “integral” to the tour’s ambitious theatrical set design – which is stylistically closer to a Broadway or an opera backdrop than a standard rock and roll set. Wilco front man Jeff Tweedy’s visual concept for the tour was inspired by a 3D-forest scene theater set in a Masonic temple in Santa Fe, New Mexico. In true experimental Wilco style, Tweedy wanted to emulate this juxtaposition of the natural world and overt theatricality for the band’s show. He called upon Roth, the band’s lighting designer for the past six years, to help bring his vision to life. “Jeff brought some photos of the temple’s stage set to me and we started discussing how to turn it into a touring production design for Wilco,” explained Roth, who has also worked with the likes of Philips Lighting makes Grammy-winning alt rockers Wilco’s artistic stage set shine | 2 dubstep star Skrillex and country legend Sheryl Crow.

  • Album of the Week: Wilco’S Star Wars
    Album Of The Week: Wilco’s Star Wars Once in a while, a talented and established band will blindside the masses with an unexpected release. It causes a buzz for a few days among the band’s loyal fans. That’s pretty much what happened when Chicago Americana rock act Wilco unexpectedly released Star Wars a few days ago. The release has a fuzzy psychedelic edge to it, glossing over Jeff Tweedy’s trademark rhythmic strums while unleashing guitar slinging madman Nels Cline on every track. Definitely a refreshing record to come out in a year filled with musical gems, Star Wars reaches for the skies. The band’s 9th studio album, Star Wars has a lot of grit. Wilco strays even more away from the pop sensibilities of previous albums Sky Blue Sky and Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and gets back to their roots. It has a similar sound to the band’s 1995 debut A.M., but there’s a heavier bass tone and you’ll hear tinges of garage rock and blues. A few tracks are absolutely nasty (in a good way) and soulful; you can’t help but dig what Wilco is doing from front to back. Ladies and gentlemen, Star Wars is proof that one of America’s favorite rock bands just got weirder. The name of Wilco’s new album is pretty interesting, huh? Star Wars? Did George Lucas help finance the record? Are Wilco the new Mos Eisley house band in The Force Awakens? We’re going to find out from the band sooner or later.

  • Chicago Theater, Chicago, IL Schmilco World Tour February 25, 2017 Consequenceofsound.Net
    Chicago Theater, Chicago, IL Schmilco World Tour February 25, 2017 consequenceofsound.net: Missing one of Wilco’s hometown shows is a sin. If you’re a fan of Jeff Tweedy’s band of extremely talented misfits, then you know that the Chicago rockers tend to go “all out” when it comes to playing at home. That goes tenfold for whenever they decide to put on a residency-of-sorts, namely because they turn the entire thing into a colossal, can’t-miss event. Like back in 2011, when they staged The Incredible Shrinking Tour of Chicago, which saw them play the Civic Opera House, the Riviera, the Vic, the Metro, and finally, an unlikely appearance at Lincoln Hall. It’s quirky shit like this that makes them heroes here. This year, as they continue to support their tenth studio album - last year’s exceptional Schmilco - the band opted to shake things up with another feat for themselves: headline the iconic Chicago Theatre. + + + + + Thanks to mdshrk1 for sharing the show at The Traders’ Den.
