Jeff Tweedy – Love Is The King (LP Vinyl)
Product Details
Recorded quickly at home during the early months of the pandemic, Love Is The King captures Tweedy at his most unguarded, leaning into the country and folk roots that have quietly anchored Wilco's catalog for decades. The spare, lived-in sound here feels less like a studio project and more like a front-porch conversation.
Out on dBpm Records, Love Is The King, a “beautifully honest ode to love and hope,” is the follow-up to 2018’s WARM and 2019’s WARMER, and comes on the heels of Tweedy’s second book, How To Write One Song, out October 13th via Penguin Random House's Dutton. “At the beginning of the lockdown I started writing country songs to console myself. Folk and country type forms being the shapes that come most easily to me in a comforting way. 'Guess Again' is a good example of the success I was having at pushing the world away, counting my blessings — taking stock in my good fortune to have love in my life,” comments Tweedy. “A few weeks later things began to sound like 'Love Is The King' — a little more frayed around the edges with a lot more fear creeping in. Still hopeful but definitely discovering the limits of my own ability to self soothe." –Jeff Tweedy
