Wilco have announced details of a new studio album, Cousin, which is released on September 29 on the bandโs dBpm label.
You can hear the first track โEvictedโ below.
โIโm cousin to the world,โ says Jeff Tweedy. โI donโt feel like Iโm a blood relation, but maybe Iโm a cousin by marriage.โ
The bandโs first album since Cruel Country, Cousin has been produced by Cate Le Bon. โThe amazing thing about Wilco is they can be anything,โ Le Bon says. โTheyโre so mercurial, and thereโs this thread of authenticity that flows through everything they do, whatever the genre, whatever the feel of the record. There arenโt many bands who are able to, this deep into a successful career, successfully change things up.โ
