Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy brings intimate versions of his songs to the grandiose Albert Hall in February, armed with just an acoustic guitar and harmonica.

Tweedy, who previously performed in country-rock band Uncle Tupelo, has fronted Wilco since they formed in 1994, releasing 10 studio albums and winning two Grammy Awards (for 2005’s A Ghost Is Born).

In June 2017 he released his first solo album, Together at Last, the first output of a retrospective series, the Loft Acoustic Sessions, which will see Tweedy re-imagine songs from Wilco’s catalogue, as well as from his Golden Smog and Loose Fur side projects.

Playing ‘unplugged’ (although amplified, we hope), this will be a rare chance to hear Tweedy reworking classics both old and new.
