Ryan Bingham never knew until he was an adult that his path would take him into music full time, much less that he would become an international star, nor did he dream of eventually reaching millions more people in film and television. He did not play guitar with much skill until his early twenties. However, he wrote one of his most enduring hits while woodshedding on guitar and harmonica, “Southside of Heaven”. His musical foundation goes back to early exposure to a great record collection and the influence of his father and uncle, especially: as a boy, he was gifted a trove of LPs from the likes of Townes Van Zandt, Guy Clark, Joey Lee, Terry Allen, and The Flatlanders, and you can hear bits and pieces of all those artists' sensibilities and approaches in his music from the jump. As Bingham said in our interview, “I still got vinyl. My family had a bar back in the 60s and 70s in New Mexico called the Halfway Bar. And my uncle saved all the vinyl records out of there from those days. And he ended up giving them to me. And that was really the music I grew up on. I remember living with him at a time and, you know, him showing me how to clean the records with the brush and on the turntable. And I was really, you know, 10, 11 years old and just fascinated with the artwork on that. I remember he had like, Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Airman was live at the Armadillo World Headquarters and all that Jim Franklin art, you know, and all those albums. It was just, I loved all that stuff. So I still got those records and play them all the time.” Ryan Bingham Currently working on a new album scheduled for release in 2026, Ryan Bingham is testing out a number of his new songs on the road, which is where he spoke with my friend Jeff Williams and myself when he played Charlotte recently, in October. In our conversation, we talked about everything from those early days where he was striving to simply have a better job than manual labor, key figures in his career like Marc Ford and Charlie Sexton, pivotal moments like joining My Morning Jacket, Wilco and Bob Dylan on stage, to playing with his current band The Texas Gentlemen, and a whole lot more, including his new song “The Lucky Ones” and excerpts from his latest live album, Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen Live at Red Rocks as well. Songs heard in this episode:“Southside Of Heaven” by Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen, from Live at Red Rocks“Jingle and Go” by Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen, from Live at Red Rocks“The Lucky Ones” by Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen, excerpt, excerpt“Bread & Water” by Ryan Bingham and The Texas Gentlemen, from Live at Red RocksThanks to my friend Jeff Williams for inspiring me to pursue interviewing Ryan Bingham, and for joining us in our conversation.

Join JrodConcerts for a fascinating conversation with Joelton Mayfield, the Nashville-based artist celebrating his debut album, Crowd Pleaser (out since October 24th via Bloodshot Records). In this episode, we dive deep into the inspiration behind Crowd Pleaser, the meaning of his new single "Turpentine (You Know the One)," and how he's navigating the music world as a burgeoning songwriter. The State of the Music Industry: We discuss his Wilco and Mountain Goats-inspired single, "Turpentine (You Know the One)," opening up about the industry's "perpetual failures" versus the miraculous way musicians keep making resonant songs anyway. The Journey to Crowd Pleaser: Joelton details the album's map of an unraveling and reformation, sorting through the hypocrisies, doubts, and disappointments that sharpened his sense of self. Life as a Songwriter: We explore the pressures of putting a breakup into a song and whether being empathetic is a must for a successful singer-songwriter. Stage Nerves and Heroes: Hear Joelton reflect on still getting nervous on stage, what it was like being an opener for heroes like The Mountain Goats' John Darnielle, John Moreland, and Steve Earle. Personal Reflections: He shares thoughts on gratitude vs. the next climb, how English literature and authors like C.S. Lewis influence his writing, and the unique power of songs connecting with multi-generations of fans. The Big Question: What does 'pleasing' mean to Joelton Mayfield in 2025?

Pat Sansone has always lived at the intersection of melody and meaning. In this episode, Pat joins the show to talk about the long-awaited return of The Autumn Defense, the harmony-rich project he shares with John Stirratt. We trace the new record's roots through years of friendship, shared playlists, and late-night rediscovery — and back even further to Pat's Mississippi upbringing, where R.E.M. and Big Star first expanded his sense of what Southern music could be.Along the way, Pat reflects on his work with Wilco, his syndicated radio show Baroque Down Palace, and his passion for film photography. He shares how observation, patience, and gratitude shape both his images and his songs, and why creativity, at its best, feels a little like “flailing closer to God.”It's a deep dive into harmony, memory, and the quiet joy of making art that endures — from the studio to the stage to the backroads of Mississippi.Check out Here and Nowhere by The Autumn DefenseCheck out Pat's photographyCheck out Baroque Down Palace, Pat's radio show

This week on Transmissions, we're toasting harvest season with John Stirratt and Pat Sansone of The Autumn Defense, who release their first album in a decade this week. It's called Here and Nowhere, out October 10 on Yep Roc Records. You might know John and Pat from their work in Wilco; Stirratt is a founding member, and Sansone joined in 2004. But the duo's work in the Autumn Defense stretches all the way back to 1999, when they formed the Laurel Canyon-style folk rock band in New Orleans.  Here and Nowhere features everything you like about the band; sterling vocals, beautiful ‘70s style orchestration, replete with shades of the baroque pop that Sansone plays on Baroque Down Palace, his radio show on WYXR. Think Todd Rundgren, Bread, Carole King, and even ELO at their most rustic. It's a tender, funny, and warming record. We discuss the new record in the hour that follows, along with detours into other projects, some Wilco talk, and an extended reflection on the legacy of Big Star—a band that's more than just influential to these two—as they actually play the Big Star catalog with drummer Jody Stephens live these days. Let's dive in with this all new episode of Tranmissions. We're brought to you by ⁠Aquarium Drunkard⁠, an independent music media crew headed by Justin Gage. Over at Aquarium Drunkard, you'll gain access to 20 years of music writing, playlist, essays, mixtapes, radio special, podcasts, videos and more.

Through his work in Uncle Tupelo and Wilco, Jeff Tweedy has played a significant role in the shaping of Americana and alternative rock since the early 90’s. The title of Uncle Tupelo’s highly influential first album, No Depression, both spawned a resurgence in music more widely described as “Americana,” as well as gave it its name. Later in his career, Tweedy and Wilco collaborated with Billy Bragg on the Mermaid Avenue records that featured lost lyrics by Woody Guthrie, released the groundbreaking album Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and put a total of 12 band and four solo records, four books, and helped establish the bi-annual Solid Sound Festival in western Massachusetts. Hear how how songs by Meat Puppets, Neil Young, and Blondie charted his musical course. Tweedy’s newest work, a triple record titled Twilight Override, was released on September 26, 2025.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I would love to see you there! Our time with Jeff Tweedy continues here, with an in depth conversation about his new triple solo album, Twilight Override. Not an overtly political songwriter, Tweedy nonetheless points to broad social issues in the overall themes of the album, and in one song in particular that he details in the interview, “Enough”. Jeff also talks about the makeup of The Tweedy Band, which features his sons and other, younger artists from his home town of Chicago, and how the group is especially well suited for multi part harmonies. We do not leave Wilco out of the conversation, either, and feature several new songs from his solo record along the way.

Part of the Trump administration's immigration clampdown involves encouraging unauthorized immigrants to “self-deport” by offering cash and other incentives. A growing number are deciding to leave the U.S. on their own. Also: today's stories, including how a quick look behind the curtain of the United Nations General Assembly finds cooperation, dialogue, and a commitment; how Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy turns to songwriting when faced with a challenging world; and how the effects of more expensive H-1B visas could range from businesses sending jobs offshore to some American workers seeing greater demand for their skills. Join the Monitor's Linda Feldmann for today's news.

The Deadcast unpacks the two-part extra-heady “King Solomon's Marbles”/'Stronger Than Dirt or Milkin' the Turkey,” using the instrumental to get into the Dead's 1975 dalliances with holography, as well as Phil Lesh's other unfinished pieces from Blues For Allah.Guests: David Lemieux, Ned Lagin, Ron Rakow, Eugene Dolgoff, Michael Parrish, Ed Perlstein, Keith Eaton, Nicholas G.

In this episode of Shoving Wilco, Todd and Tim are joined by Mike Conklin, executive editor of InsideHook, to unpack Jeff Tweedy's sprawling new triple album, Twilight Override. Conklin has spoken with every member of Jeff's solo band — Spencer, Sammy, Sima Cunningham, Macie Stewart, and Liam Kazar — as well as Jeff himself, to explore how this group has quietly become as much of a creative constant for Tweedy as Wilco. Read Conklin's article here. Together, they discuss the making of Twilight Override, the interplay of family and community at The Loft, the songs that linger long after the last chord, and what it means for Jeff to treat creativity as a way of life.Todd mentioned All Songs Considered; Robin Hilton interviews Jeff. Head here to listen to it.

Emma Swift is a sublime singer of her own songs as well as those of Bob Dylan, as she demonstrates on her new album, The Resurrection Game, and the previous Blonde on the Tracks. She says The Resurrection Game is about “how art can get us through quite brutal experiences by making them beautiful”—i.e. what a lot of us need right now. Swift tells of her Australian upbringing and influences, how she wound up in Nashville and what her musical and personal life is like there with her husband, singer-songwriter Robyn Hitchcock. She describes him as surreal and nihilistic, herself as languid and romantic. Do their sensibilities rub off on one another? Do they sing and write together at home? How did she wind up running their record label, Tiny Ghost Records? And which new song was inspired by a Wilco title?

The Wilco frontman talks about his new triple solo album, 'Twilight Override,' an enthralling opus on the miracle and wonder of life, and why he can't get enough of it, even when everything seems bad.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In mid May, 2025, I spoke with Jeff Tweedy ahead of his show with Wilco in Charlotte, NC, and have been waiting for his forthcoming solo album to publish his interview here on Southern Songs and Stories. I was fortunate to get to listen to several songs from Twilight Override ahead of my conversation with Jeff Tweedy, and was one of, if not the first person to talk with him about the album, and especially about the song “Enough”. That conversation is coming in our next episode, once the full album is available in late September 2025, but here we bring you a bonus episode, with the part of our conversation that was broadcast on public radio WNCW the same afternoon, ahead of Wilco's show at the Amp Ballantyne in Charlotte.

In this deleted scene from Episode 51, the guys dive into the eerie coincidence of Wilco's "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" album cover and its scheduled release date falling on 9/11, sparking a deeper conversation about music's unintentional prophecies and cultural impact. A deleted scene that proves sometimes the most fascinating musical discussions happen off-script.

Jeff Tweedy is best known as the front man of Wilco, the rock band he formed in Chicago in 1994. In recent years, he's been working more often as a solo artist, putting out records under his own name as well as a memoir and essays on songwriting. Amanda Petrusich sat down with the singer-songwriter to talk about “Twilight Override,” which comes out later this month. Recorded with Tweedy's two sons and a number of his fellow Chicago-based musicians, “Twilight Override” is a triple album of songs centered on themes of time, aging, fear, and “making peace with something ending.” “If we're looking at the word override, what am I overriding?” Tweedy says. “I mean, twilight's beautiful . . . but you need to override your fear of it.” Tweedy performs acoustic versions of “Love Is for Love,” “Lou Reed Was My Babysitter,” and “Forever Never Ends.” 

On this episode of Shoving Wilco, we sit down with Canadian singer-songwriter Kalle Mattson to talk about Jeff Tweedy's songwriting. Kalle breaks down what makes Tweedy's lyrics stand out, from surreal fragments to plainspoken truths. We explore how Wilco has shaped his own music and teaching, and why the songs of Wilco continue to cut so deep. If you care about how Wilco's words work—and why they matter—this is an episode you don't want to miss.For more on Kalle, head to his website.

Welcome to season 4! Lance and Matt give a brief glimpse of what's to come on the podcast and recap their end of summer experiences at Wilco's Denver and Vail shows.
