A musician, songwriter, author, and record producer best known as a vocalist and guitarist for the band Wilco. Tweedy, originally from Belleville, Illinois, started his music career in high school in his band The Plebes with Jay Farrar, which subsequently transitioned into the alternative-country band Uncle Tupelo. After Uncle Tupelo broke up, Tweedy formed Wilco which found critical and commercial success, most notably with Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and A Ghost Is Born, the latter of which received a Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album in 2005. Over the course of his career, Tweedy has released 20 studio albums, including four with Uncle Tupelo, 11 with Wilco, one with his son Spencer, a solo acoustic album, and three solo studio albums, along with numerous collaborations with other musicians, most notably Mermaid Avenue with Billy Bragg. His most recent album with Wilco, 2019's Ode to Joe, became one of the band's most critically acclaimed titles, with Paste magazine praising it "larger-than-life soft rock full of both grand ideas about the state of our world and small musings about matters of the heart."
