Wilco

In this electrifying live recording from Outside Lands 2015, Wilco performed "Heavy Metal Drummer" in the picturesque setting of Golden Gate Park. At this point in their journey, they had just released their surprise album, "Star Wars," which came out earlier that same year. The album was a bold move, showcasing their willingness to experiment and defy the usual industry norms by offering it as a free download. Jeff Tweedy's enthusiasm during the performance resonates deeply, as he proudly shares the news about the new album with the audience. This moment captures Wilco's vibrant stage presence, blending innovative sound with heartfelt storytelling. It's fascinating to note how they've evolved over the years, constantly pushing their boundaries while staying connected to their roots, making each performance a reflection of their growth and creativity.
