Wilco has added many a new date with Dr. Dog to its already extensive tour, seemingly embracing the experimental side of its "experimental alt.rock" categorization. The tour has already carried the band from Iowa to Spain (practically indistinguishable from each other, when you think about it), but the people of Colorado, Texas and Canada need just as much Tweedy and co. as the people of Davenport and Benicàssim. What's an extra state here, an extra country there?
The group’s sixth studio album, Sky Blue Sky debuted on Nonesuch Records at number 4 in May on Billboard's Top 200. Meanwhile, Wilco guitarist Nels Cline recently released an album titled Draw Breath on Cryptogramophone.
