New tracks by Bright Eyes, Waxahatchee, Car Seat Headrest, Modern Nature, Arbouretum, Hexvessel, Wax Machine, Empty Country, Squid, Dogleg, Tropical Fuck Storm, LEYA, Kenny Berg ft. Chico da Tina, J Balvin, Lil Yachty, Baxter Dury, Margaret Glaspy, Kelsea Ballerini, Jennah Barry, Blake Mills, Natalia Lafourcade Oficial & Los Cojolites, Dave Simonett, Carl Anderson, and Lucinda Williams.

Simultaneously with the release of his book, Wilco’s frontman Jeff Tweedy has just put out WARM, his first solo album of original material, and probably one of the best Wilco-related releases since 2007’s Sky Blue Sky.

Plus: new tracks from Michael Chapman, the Mountain Goats, Ryan Bingham, Daniel Romano, Foxwarren, The Green Apple Sea, Hollow Hand, DBUK, Pavo Pavo, Blake Mills, Sharon Van Etten, Jessica Moss, These New Puritans, ГШ / Glintshake, Harlem, and Conor Oberst.
