Nels Cline of Wilco talks abou the new album 'Cousin' (interview for The Current)

On Friday, Sept. 29, Wilco released their latest album, "Cousin." The Current’s Bill DeVille connected with longtime Wilco guitarist Nels Cline to talk about the new album, of course, but also about what it’s like on the inside of Wilco World.
”To speak to the 19 years with this current lineup, we get along, obviously,” Cline says. “We have a really good time playing together, and we have a good time on the road … and there's just a ton of mutual respect. I really consider these gentlemen my brothers.”
Watch and listen to the complete interview above.

Big yes to this Wilco prog record! and more exploration.

[@Baribrotzer]

Some twenty years ago, Wilco recruited Nels from obscurity: He was a jazzer and guitar experimentalist working day jobs; little known except among obsessive guitarists and jazz fans.

Thank you for playing with Wilco for 19 years! I've always admired your guitar approach to jeff's country/folky songs, including cousin. I want to continue listening to your guitar tones. I’ll be waiting for you at the venue in Japan in March 2024✨ Nels Cline is my god.from JP

I'd like to see Wilco do a balls to the wall rock record. Love the new album.

[@HenkWalks]

Love that it is possible to have a normal talk with these Band members. Not like most pop bands that act crazy in Interviews. Love Cousin.

I have never been a big Wilco fan, but The Nels Cline 4 was one of the most amazing ensembles I have ever seen. Wilco is good, but Nels’ music blew me away, it hit a lot of my happy-buttons.

[@no-whereman1257]

Thank you for your valuable musical contribution to Wilco, Nels. You are so talented in your guitar playing!

[@superamanda]

A great musician awesome with his buddy Scott, Amendola and Nels Cline singers plus the excellent Wilco and this astonishing recent touring work with Nick Lowe. Like John Hiatt another tireless musician we are really lucky to have Nels Cline.

I love Wilco so much but lately.. from their last few albums.. I personally feel like it's been more of a Jeff Tweedy solo album than Wilco album.. I hope we get Nels gets to shred more and even being more keyboards rockin out. A Wilco Progression album would be insane!

[@davidellis5141]

Cousin is a fine new album from Wilco. Nels solo on Impossible Germany is always a live highlight.

[@w.michaelserra2340]

Please play Pittsburgh. Literally,come back.
