Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy joins Kyle Meredith to dive into his ambitious new triple solo album, Twilight Override. Clocking in at 30 songs across three discs, the project explores the past, present, and future—not as a rigid concept record, but as a flowing arc of memory, meaning, and hope. Tweedy shares how the record was inspired by the voices of his touring band, and how writing for their harmonies pushed the songs into new emotional territory. He also reflects on post-pandemic generational trauma, the ongoing challenge of maintaining empathy in a fractured world, and the creative power in resisting doomscroll culture.
From the autobiographical storytelling of “parking lots” to the messy guitar solos and meditative closing track “Enough,” it’s a generous and unguarded collection—released, hilariously, on the 30th anniversary of Wilco’s debut. No nostalgia tours here, just a big-hearted flood of new music. Get tickets to Tweedy's upcoming tour dates here: https://stubhub.prf.hn/l/kVkPdWg/
