While Jeff Tweedy/Wilco have never earned their own post, Tweedy himself has been mentioned over 30 times on the blog - either by his name, Wilco or Uncle Tupelo. His influence runs deep to say the least.
I'll be in Redding, California tonight to see him play "solo" (with a full backing band). To say Jeff Tweedy (Chicago, Illinois) is a great songwriter is a ridiculous understatement. I really don't know how so much excellent music comes out of one person so readily. But it does, so I'm going back to my old stomping grounds to bask in the glory of his music. "Twilight Override" reminds me of Wilco's "Being There" in both sound and length. While you can't purchase a physical copy of this on Bandcamp, you can on Jeff Tweedy's website.
Speaking of his backing band - it's made up of members of Finom (formerly Ohmme - Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart), two sons (Sammy and Spencer Tweedy), James Elkington (great solo artist and former member of Eleventh Dream Day) and Liam Kazar (former Kids These Days).
I'll be seeing the concert at the Cascade, which when I lived in Redding was a movie theater. I won't tell you all the amazing movies I saw at the Cascade.
