Jeff Tweedy has announced a new triple album.
The Wilco frontman will release the 30-track 'Twilight Override' through dBpm Records on September 26, following up 2020's 'Love Is The King'.
Recorded and self-produced at his Chicago studio,The Loft, the record features contributions from James Elkington, Finom's Sima Cunningham and Macie Stewart, and Liam Kazar, as well as Tweedy's sons, Spencer and Sammy.
As a preview, Tweedy has unveiled the record's four lead tracks; the contemplative yet uptempo radio single Enough, hypnotic album opener One Tiny Flower, indie rock offering Out In The Dark about a planet without a moon, and the personal, melodic Stray Cats in Spain. Press play below.
"When you choose to do creative things, you align yourself with something that other people call God," Tweedy said. "And when you align yourself with creation, you inherently take a side against destruction. You’re on the side of creation. And that does a lot to quell the impulse to destroy. Creativity eats darkness.
"Sort of an endless buffet these days—a bottomless basket of rock bottom. Which is, I guess, why I’ve been making so much stuff lately. That sense of decline is hard to ignore, and it must be at least a part of the shroud I’m trying to unwrap. The twilight of an empire seems like a good enough jumping-off point when one is jumping into the abyss.
"Twilight sure is a pretty word, though," he continued. "And the world is full of happy people in former empires, so maybe that’s not the only source of this dissonance. Whatever it is out there (or in there) squeezing this ennui into my day, it’s fucking overwhelming. It’s difficult to ignore. 'Twilight Override' is my effort to overwhelm it right back. Here are the songs and sounds and voices and guitars and words that are an effort to let go of some of the heaviness and up the wattage on my own light. My effort to engulf this encroaching nighttime (nightmare) of the soul."
Tweedy will support the project with a full-band tour across North America this fall, featuring support from Sima Cunningham, Macie Stewart, and Liam Kazar on select dates. A European run will follow early next year, and includes a London show at Islington Assembly Hall on February 20. Tickets go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday (July 18).
He also has shows lined up over the next month with Wilco, tickets for which are on sale now. The Grammy-winning group released their 'Hot Sun Cool Shroud' EP last summer. Their latest studio album is 2023's 'Cousin'.
