Wilco will appear on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert tonight (11:35/10:35c) to perform material from their upcoming album, Ode to Joy, which releases this Friday, October 4th.
Jeff Tweedy and co. will be the musical guest on Colbert’s popular CBS program, which will also feature guests Hillary Rodham Clinton, and her daughter, Chelsea.
Previously, Wilco appeared on the show on February 4, to play “Random Name Generator” from their 2015 album Star Wars, and later that year on September 21 to perform “Someone to Lose” from their then newly released record, Schmilco. On both episodes, Tweedy participated in skits with Colbert. One of which you can watch here:
Last year, Tweedy went on the show alone to promote his memoir, Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back), and his accompanying solo album, Warm. After Tweedy’s interview, in which he said that doing his first talk show sit-down interview was “the coolest thing that's ever happened to me,” he performed “Let’s Go Rain.”
It’ll sure be interesting to see what Ode to Joy track makes the cut. Or if Tweedy takes part in another silly skit. Well, both of those really.
