How To Write One Song, out now on Penguin Random House’s Dutton imprint, is Jeff’s second ​ ​ ​ book to land on the New York Times lists, following his 2018 memoir, Let’s Go (So We Can Get ​ ​ ​ Back). For an exceptional and intimate behind-the-scenes look into Jeff’s process and ​ environment, head to Vulture to read a new piece which lauds the book as “an incisive index of ​ ​ exercises and jocular advice for any aspiring lyricist that also works as an empathetic self-help book for anyone suffering self-doubt.”

Recorded by Jeff and his sons, Spencer and Sammy, Love Is The King documents a time in ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ history through the personal lens of shared human experience. Out now digitally via dBpm ​ Records, the album’s physical release is set for January 15th. ​ ​ ​

Praise for Love Is The King and How To Write One Song: ​ ​ ​ ​

“While his guitar gently weeps, Tweedy sets a scene that’s both surreal and acutely felt.” - New ​ York Times

“The melodies are familiar territory for Wilco fans and seem to trace the path through the various periods of the band’s catalogue, from country to straight-forward mellow rock. 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. Snippets of lyrics mentioned in the book unspool, transformed.” - Chicago Tribune ​

“How To Write One Song [is] a smart, funny, relentlessly practical guide to discovering the ​ ​ secret songwriter within.” - GQ ​

“The ability to capture moments of tenderness with uncompromising wit has made the Wilco frontman one of the great contemporary American songwriters.” -- SF Chronicle ​

“Love Is The King delivers 11 such tracks of spare Americana: promises of romantic faith and ​ ​ devotion and humble expressions of gratitude” -- The AV Club ​

“ Unlike many songwriters, who often bat away questions about their work habits by claiming that ideas simply come to them from some unseen higher power, Tweedy is refreshingly practical about the act of writing songs.” -- Uproxx ​
