  • Wilco is an American alternative rock band based in Chicago, Illinois. Their name comes from the voice procedure term "wilco" meaning "will comply. " The band was formed in 1994 by the remaining members of alternative country group Uncle Tupelo following singer Jay Farrar's departure. Wilco's lineup has changed frequently, with only singer Jeff Tweedy and bassist John Stirratt remaining from the original incarnation. Since early 2004, the other current members are guitarist Nels Cline, multi-instrumentalists Pat Sansone and Mikael Jorgensen, and drummer Glenn Kotche. Wilco has released seven studio albums, a live double album, and three collaborations: two with Billy Bragg, and one with The Minus 5. Wilco's music has been inspired by a wide variety of artists and styles, including Bill Fay and Television, and has in turn influenced music by a number of modern alternative rock acts. The band continued in the alternative country of Uncle Tupelo on its debut album A.M. (1995), but has since introduced more experimental aspects to their music, including elements of alternative rock, and classic pop. Wilco garnered media attention for its fourth album, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (2002), and the controversy surrounding it. After the recording sessions were complete, Reprise Records rejected the album and dismissed Wilco from the label. As part of a buy-out deal, Reprise gave Wilco the rights to the album for free. After streaming Foxtrot on its website, Wilco sold the album to Nonesuch Records in 2002. Both record labels are subsidiaries of Warner Music Group, leading one critic to say that the album showed "how screwed up the music business [was] in the early twenty-first century. " Yankee Hotel Foxtrot is Wilco's most successful release to date, selling over 590,000 copies. Wilco won two Grammy Awards for their fifth studio album, 2004's A Ghost Is Born, including Best Alternative Music Album. Wilco released their seventh studio album Wilco (The Album) on June 30, 2009.
  • Wilco ist eine US-amerikanische Independent-Band aus Chicago. Sie wird auch – vor allem mit ihren früheren Werken – dem Alternative Country zugerechnet.
  • Wilco es un aclamado grupo de rock estadounidense, conocido en sus inicios por sus raíces country, y que en la actualidad se ha consolidado como una de las referencias básicas de la escena alternativa norteamericana.
  • Wilco est un groupe de rock contemporain américain composé de Jeff Tweedy au chant et à l'écriture, John Stirratt à la basse, Nels Cline à la guitare, Glenn Kotche aux percussions, le multinstrumentiste Pat Sansone et le pianiste Mikael Jorgensen. Le groupe est né des cendres du groupe américain d'alternative country Uncle Tupelo en 1994. On retrouve à la tête de ce quatuor l'auteur, Jeff Tweedy. Après un premier album, A.M. , dans la lignée des disques de Uncle Tupelo, Wilco va prendre un tournant important en sortant Being There, un double album ambitieux qui marie country, soul, pop et bien sûr rock. Après une collaboration avec Billy Bragg et la sortie de Mermaid Avenue, le groupe va encore changer de son en sortant un album très influencé par une pop que ne dénigrerait sans doute pas Brian Wilson, Summerteeth. L'album suivant, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, est un énorme succès critique et certains journalistes le comparent aux expérimentations des disques de Radiohead. Le nombre de fans de Wilco va considérablement augmenter et cela, même en dehors de son Amérique natale. La prochaine étape discographique de Wilco s'appelle A Ghost Is Born et mélange à la fois les penchants pop que l'on pouvait retrouver sur Summerteeth et les expérimentations de Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. En 2005, Le groupe sort un double album live qui montre qu'il n'est pas seulement à l'aise dans un studio. En mai 2007 sort Sky Blue Sky, porté par d'élogieuses critiques. Le neuvième album studio du groupe est sorti en juin 2009, il est intitulé Wilco (The Album).
  • Wilco è una rock band americana di Chicago. La band fu fondata dal musicista e compositore Jeff Tweedy nel 1994 dopo lo scioglimento del gruppo Uncle Tupelo. Mentre agli inizi si rifacevano allo stile musicale degli Uncle Tupelo, oggi i Wilco sono famosi per il loro stile sperimentale e alternative rock. I componenti attuali del gruppo sono John Stirratt, il chitarrista Nels Cline, il batterista Glenn Kotche,il polistrumentista Pat Sansone e il pianista Mikael Jorgensen. La band ha pubblicato sei album in studio, un album live, e due album tributo al musicista folk americano Woody Guthrie in collaborazione con il musicista inglese Billy Bragg. Il loro quinto album in studio A Ghost Is Born ha vinto due Grammy Awards come Miglior Album di Musica Alternativa e come Miglior Recording Package nel 2005.
  • Wilco is een Amerikaanse rockband die in 1994 werd opgericht door oud-leden van Uncle Tupelo. De band bestaat anno 2006 uit Jeff Tweedy, Nels Cline, John Stirratt, Glenn Kotche, Mikael Jorgensen en Pat Sansone. Nadat cultgroup Uncle Tupelo begin jaren negentig ter ziele gaat, richten de belangrijkste songwriters van die groep Jay Farrar en Jeff Tweedy beiden hun eigen band op: Son Volt en Wilco. Na het verschijnen van de eerste platen "A.M. " en "Being There" wordt de band gezien als een van de vaandeldragers van het muziekgenre alt. country. Dochter Nora van Amerikaans folkzanger Woody Guthrie vraagt de band vervolgens teksten die haar vader voor zijn dood heeft achtergelaten van muziek te voorzien. Samen met de Engelse muzikant Billy Bragg duikt Wilco de studio in en dit levert de albums "Mermaid Avenue vol. 1 & 2" op. In april 2009 bracht Wilco op internet een gratis cover uit van de Woody Guthrie song "The Jolly Banker". Aan de downloaders werd gevraagd om een donatie aan de Woody Guthrie Foundation, die de nalatenschap van de folkzanger bewaart. Op het volgende album, "Summerteeth" uit 1999, slaat de groep een nieuw muzikaal pad in. Er staan nog steeds poppy gitaarsongs op het album, maar daarnaast krijgen enkele nummers complexer arrangementen. Er is plaats voor (elektronische) geluidseffecten, samples, feedback en (op recentere platen) zeer complexe percussiepartijen. Op "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" en "A Ghost is Born" wordt deze werkwijze alleen nog maar grondiger toegepast. Het liedje heeft dan plaatsgemaakt voor muziekcollages. De vraag of deze nummers ook live kunnen worden gebracht, beantwoordt de band in 2005 middels het uitbrengen van het live-dubbelalbum Kicking Television, een registratie van een tweetal concerten in thuisbasis Chicago. In mei 2007 brengt de band het album Sky Blue Sky uit, waarop het gitaarspel van Tweedy en Cline een dominante rol speelt. De plaat is muzikaal minder experimenteel dan zijn twee voorgangers. De moeizame totstandkoming van het album "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" (2001) is vastgelegd in de documentaire "I Am Trying To Break Your Heart" van filmmaker Sam Jones.
  • Wilco er ei amerikansk rockegruppe. Gruppa ble danna i 1994 av medlemmer av den nylig oppløste gruppa Uncle Tupelo, med sangeren og gitaristen Jeff Tweedy i spissen. De øvrige var trommeslageren Ken Coomer, bassisten John Stirratt og multiinstrumentalisten Max Johnston, samt gitaristen Jay Bennett. Gruppas debutalbum A.M. kom i 1995, en samling countryrocklåter som fulgte sporet fra Tweedys tidligere arbeider. Året etter kom dobbeltalbumet Being There, som innvarsla en stilendring. Her finnes innslag av psykedelisk rock, powerpop og soul. Plata ble svært godt mottatt av kritikerne. Kort tid etter forlot Johnston gruppa for å spille med søstera Michelle Shocked, og ble erstatta av Bob Egan. I 1998 inngikk Wilco et samarbeid med sangeren og låtskriveren Billy Bragg som resulterte i plata Mermaid Avenue, en samling av til da upublisert materiale av Woody Guthrie. Denne ble fulgt opp av en Mermaid Avenue, Vol. 2 i 2000. I mellomtida hadde da Wilco kommet med sitt tredje album, Summerteeth (1999) - også dette sterkt kritikerrost. Wilcos fjerde album - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot - førte til et brudd med plateselskapet Warner/Reprise. Gruppa nekta å etterkomme selskapets krav om å gjøre musikken mer kommersielt innretta, og kjøpte deretter masterbåndet og forlot selskapet for godt. Rettighetene ble overtatt av selskapet Nonesuch, og plata ble sluppet tidlig i 2002 - til allmenn akklamasjon fra musikkritikerne. Til innspillingene av det neste albumet - A Ghost Is Born - var besetninga blitt noe endra. Leroy Bach forlot gruppa, og inn kom gitaristen Nels Cline og keyboardisten Mike Jorgensen. I 2005 slapp gruppa albumet Kicking Television: Live in Chicago, innspilt i The Vic Theatre i Chicago. Albumet ble av Q Magazine seinere kåra til ett av de 20 beste livealbum.

  • Sample from "I Must Be High", the first track from A.M.. The song is an example of the straightforward alternative country music described by Tweedy as "trying to tread some water with a perceived audience."
  • Sample of "What Light", the eleventh track from ''Sky Blue Sky'' which was offered as a free download from the official Wilco website. The song exemplifies the straightforward melody, contrasting ''Yankee Hotel Foxtrot'' and ''A Ghost Is Born''.
  • The first track from Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, this song featured an intro on bells composed by Glenn Kotche.
