Wilco was the musical guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last night. The band performed "A Magazine Called Sunset" on the show and gave a web-exclusive take on "Cars Can't Escape," both of which are featured on their forthcoming box set of rare studio and live recordings, Alpha Mike Foxtrot. That collection and What's Your 20?, a compilation of essential tracks from the band’s previously released studio recordings, will be released on November 17 (December 1 outside of North America) in conjunction with the band's 20th anniversary. Both are available to pre-order in the Nonesuch Store. Pre-orders of Alpha Mike Foxtrot include an instant download of “A Magazine Called Sunset,” which Wilco's Jeff Tweedy calls “a mysterious omission from an official recorded output and a real attempt at complete pop music.”

Also on The Tonight Show, Tweedy partnered with actor Ewan McGregor to face off against Jimmy Fallon and Charles Barkley in a fierce game of charades. You can watch that and the two performances below.

Wilco begins a sold-out, three-night run at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester tonight. In early December, Wilco will play six, sold-out shows at Chicago’s Riviera Theatre. Set lists will change each night and feature songs from every era of Wilco’s two-decade career. For additional details, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

    The Way Out of Easy, the first album from guitarist Jeff Parker and his long-running ETA IVtet—saxophonist Josh Johnson, bassist Anna Butterss, drummer Jay Bellerose—since their 2022 debut Mondays at the Enfield Tennis Academy, which Pitchfork named one of the Best Albums of the 2020s So Far, is out now on International Anthem / Nonesuch Records. Like that album, The Way Out of Easy comprises recordings from LA venue ETA, where Parker and the ensemble held a weekly residency for seven years. During that time, the ETA IVtet evolved from a band that played mostly standards into a group known for its transcendent, long-form journeys into innovative, groove-oriented improvised music. All four tracks on The Way Out of Easy come from a single night in 2023, providing an unfiltered view of the ensemble, fully in their element.

    The Staves' new EP Happy New Year, out today, includes three acoustic versions of tracks from their new album, All Now—"I Don't Say It, But I Feel It," "After School," and "All Now"—and a cover of The Beatles' "She's Leaving Home." Also out now: an acoustic performance video for "After School," which the duo calls "a love song to our sister Emily inspired by the bands we were listening to in the '90s. Putting on the rose-tinted glasses and embracing nostalgia."
