Goin' Solo

Fine, I'll do it myself. Just like a pair of G:TB faves who usually front terrific bands who are dropping solo records over the coming weeks. 

Jeff Tweedy's Twilight Override will be released on September 26. It's a 30-song triple record. A goddamned opus. Here's "Enough", which is probably what Tweedy felt by the end of the recording process.

Old 97s frontman Rhett Miller follows Tweedy with A Lifetime of Riding by Night on October 10. Miller finished the record just days before he underwent vocal chord surgery that's kept him off the mic for several months. Looking forward to hearing this one live, including "Come as You Are".

  1. thanks for the "we defy augury" plug!

    just back from the beach and catching up here-- because of the whole teaching high school thing, i think i've seen a million faces, and i've definitely rocked like seven of them.

  2. These musicians front bands that represent 2 of my 5 favorite bands ever. Good stuff, Robbie.

  3. us women play a ferocious second half, take the lead on a try and conversion in the 71st minute, then allow a try in the 72nd by the wallaroos to settle for a tie. think it’ll come down to goal differential - us need to wallop samoa and hope england pants the aussies.
