Un anno dopo ‘Warmer’ l’iperattivo Jeff Tweedy annuncia il quarto album solista ‘Love is the King’ che sarà fuori il 23 ottobre. Due singoli che anticipano il disco: ‘Guess Again’ e la title track. L’artista americano è reduce dal ritorno con i Wilco (‘Ode to Joy’) e all’orizzonte c’è anche il nuovo libro “How to Write One Song” che verrà pubblicato il 13 ottobre dalla Dutton.
“At the beginning of the lockdown I started writing country songs to console myself. Folk and country type forms being the shapes that come most easily to me in a comforting way. ‘Guess Again’ is a good example of the success I was having at pushing the world away, counting my blessings—taking stock in my good fortune to have love in my life. A few weeks later things began to sound like ‘Love Is the King’—a little more frayed around the edges with a lot more fear creeping in. Still hopeful but definitely discovering the limits of my own ability to self soothe.”
