Wilco is an American alternative rock band formed in 1994 and based in Chicago, Illinois. Led by singer-songwriter and guitarist Jeff Tweedy, the sextet's current lineup solidified in 2004 with the addition of guitarist Nels Cline and guitarist/keyboardist Patrick Sansone. The band's unique blend of classic roots rock incorporates elements of folk, pop, and experimentalism.

With a catalog that includes critically acclaimed albums such as Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (named one of the greatest albums of all time by Rolling Stone) and Grammy award-winning A Ghost is Born, Wilco has established themselves as one of America's best rock bands. Their collaboration with British folk singer Billy Bragg on the Mermaid Avenue series showcases their ability to set original music to iconic song lyrics by Woody Guthrie.

Known for their tight musicianship and deep connection to their music, Wilco has been praised by NPR as "the best rock band in America" and hailed by the Los Angeles Times as "an amazing machine." With a sound that spans genres and pushes boundaries, Wilco continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

Wilco’s thirteenth studio album,&nbsp;Cousin,&nbsp;was recorded in the band’s legendary Chicago studio – The Loft – over a period of two years. The ten new tracks are written by band leader Jeff Tweedy and feature musical performances by the longtime lineup of Nels Cline, Mikael Jorgensen, Glenn Kotche, John Stirratt, Pat Sansone and, of course, Tweedy on lead vocals.

After a short detour back into their country-influenced roots via last year’s&nbsp;Cruel Country&nbsp;double album,&nbsp;Cousin&nbsp;sees Wilco back in their more familiar progressive and experimental rock territory. Tweedy’s singular songwriting voice is in full evidence, with lyrics weaving across a variety of topics – from the iconoclastic to the introspective.

Adding a unique and new element to the recording process was the attachment of Welsh singer/songwriter Cate Le Bon as producer – the first time an outsider has been actively involved in a Wilco recording session for more than ten years, since&nbsp;Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.&nbsp;Le Bon brought her unique musical perspective to the band’s trademark sound and provided them with an inspiring new challenge to push their musical boundaries.
