Wilco’s JeffTweedy on the upcoming return of the band’s Solid Sound fest after a three-year break.
at Lollapalooza a few years ago. That was really flattering and exciting, and we’ve gotten to be friendly. She’s pretty much the opposite of me, in terms of stylishness. But I have a warm feeling about our friendship.”, who shares similar origins to Wilco in the indie-folk and alt-country scenes of the mid-Nineties but has rarely been part of the U.S. festival circuit. “He’s been on our dream list for a long time,” Tweedy says.
One of the factors that makes Solid Sound unique is its setting on the grounds of the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, whose collection includes conceptual wall drawings by Sol LeWitt, fantastical sculpture by Louise Bourgeois, provocative leaflets by Jenny Holzer, and a wide range of newer works. “It’s such an incredible privilege to get to use that space and interact with those visual artists and contemporary artists that have their works there,” Tweedy says.
Wilco have been working on new music since shortly before the pandemic began, and while Tweedy isn’t ready to offer an update, it seems safe to imagine there’s much for fans to look forward to. “It’s going great,” he says with a smile.a bit more about the sessions as they stood then. “There’s a lot of motivation, and I feel very inspired to make something that will be worthy of the catharsis that will come along with playing music in front of people again,”.
As the pandemic has stretched on — delaying Solid Sound from its regularly scheduled return in 2021, but relenting enough at times to allow Wilco to play a few dozen shows — his perspective has shifted. “I think it was wishful thinking for it to feel like that,” he says. “What I didn’t anticipate is the level of trauma that everybody has gone through. It’s created these tiers of risk assessment for individuals.
For now, he’s hoping that Solid Sound can help give Wilco fans something they have missed. “There have been moments where you can just remind people, ‘Hey, we’re here. We’re doing this,'” he continues. “You can see the relief ripple through the crowd, as they let it go, and be free of care for a little bit. That’s the big step. … I do think that there are and can be those moments. And every year we’ll probably get a little bit closer to it.
