Wilco announce new album, Ode to Joy

Wilco has announced a new album. On October 4, the band will release Ode to Joy via their dBPM label. The first single is titled “Love Is Everywhere (Beware)”, which you can hear below. Frontman Jeff Tweedy says of the song in a press release, “There MUST be more love than hate. Right?! I’m not always positive we can be so sure. In any case, I’m starting to feel like being confident in that equation isn’t always the best motivation for me to be my best self – it can kind of let me off the hook a little bit when I think I should be striving to contribute more love outside of my comfortable sphere of family and friends.”

Check out the album’s tracklist below as well as the band’s upcoming North American tour dates. Ode to Joy follows 2016’s Schmilco.
