You might not expect a band’s self-titled album to be released 15 years after the group’s formation, but Wilco isn’t your regular rock band. And their latest album Wilco (the album)—released today—stands as a declaration of the group’s identity, meticulously cultivated over the years by frontman Jeff Tweedy. Tweedy sat down with Alison Cuddy to discuss the new record and the controversy surrounding the band’s past relationship with recently-deceased former member, Jay Bennett.
