About

Jeffrey Scot Tweedy (born August 25, 1967) is an American musician, author, and record producer, best known as the lead vocalist and guitarist of the band Wilco. Tweedy, originally from Belleville, Illinois, began his music career in high school with his band The Plebes along with Jay Farrar, also in the band. The Plebes later became 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 received a Grammy for Best Alternative Album in 2005.

During his career Tweedy has released 20 studio albums including four with Uncle Tupelo, twelve with Wilco, one with his son Spencer, a solo acoustic album, three solo studio albums, along with numerous collaborations with other musicians, most notably Mermaid Avenue with Billy Bragg.

Jeff Tweedy, né le 25 août 1967, est un chanteur, guitariste et bassiste américain de country alternative et de rock alternatif. Il est actuellement le leader du groupe Wilco. Au début des années 1980, Jeff Tweedy rejoint le groupe The Plebes avec son ami d'enfance Jay Farrar, mais les goûts musicaux de Tweedy font partir un des frères de Farrar. Le groupe change ensuite de nom pour The Primitives en 1984, puis opte pour Uncle Tupelo en 1987. Le groupe ainsi renommé obtient suffisamment de soutien et décroche un contrat et une tournée nationale. Après avoir sorti quatre albums, le groupe se sépare en 1994 à la suite de conflits entre Tweedy et Farrar.

En 1994, Jeff Tweedy forme le groupe Wilco avec John Stirratt, Max Johnston, et Ken Coomer. Le groupe sort huit albums et trouve le succès commercial avec Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, A Ghost Is Born, Sky Blue Sky et Wilco (The Album). Wilco sort aussi deux albums en collaboration avec Billy Bragg et un avec The Minus 5. Tweedy a reçu deux Grammy Awards dont un pour le meilleur album alternatif avec A Ghost Is Born
