Wilco Makes Plans For 2015
Last week Wilco wrapped its 2014 plans with a six-night residency in its hometown of Chicago at the Riviera Theatre. The band had promised to mix up the setlist each night and highlight songs from throughout its two decade-long career, which has seen Jeff Tweedy & Co. release eight studio albums.
In addition to special shows, Wilco marked the big 2-0 by releasing its first-ever compilation sets in November. The 4-CD/4-LP/digital Alpha Mike Foxtrot features rare studio and live recordings. What’s Your 20 is a 2-CD/digital compilation of tracks selected from the band’s previously released studio recordings.
Here are the new dates:
April 22 – Dallas, Texas, McFarlin Memorial Auditorium
April 23 – Houston, Texas, Bayou Music Center
April 26 – Tallahassee, Fla., Capital City Amphitheater At Cascades Park
April 28 – Orlando, Fla., Hard Rock Cafe / Hard Rock Live
May 1 – Saint Augustine, Fla., St. Augustine Amphitheatre
Presale tickets will be available Dec. 17 at 10 a.m. local time. The general onsale begins Dec. 19.
The band will appear at its Solid Sound Festival, which takes place June 26-28 in North Adams, Mass., at Mass Moca. The daily schedule hasn’t been released yet. Tickets for Solid Sound are on sale now.
Plus, Tweedy – aka Jeff and his son Spencer – have a handful of previously announced gigs booked in Europe in January and February.
