Jeff Tweedy - LOVE IS THE KING / LIVE IS THE KING - Out on dBpm Records, Love Is The King, a beautifully honest ode to love and hope, is the follow-up to 2018's WARM and 2019's WARMER, and comes on the heels of Tweedy's second book, How To Write One Song. At the beginning of the lockdown I started writing country songs to console myself. Folk and country type forms being the shapes that come most easily to me in a comforting way. 'Guess Again' is a good example of the success I was having at pushing the world away, counting my blessings - taking stock in my good fortune to have love in my life, comments Tweedy. A few weeks later things began to sound like 'Love Is The King' - a little more frayed around the edges with a lot more fear creeping in. Still hopeful but definitely discovering the limits of my own ability to self soothe. This deluxe edition will include a second disc of live material, all in the same sequence as the studio recording plus a Neil Young cover bonus track titled The Old Country Waltz. Love Is The King, Opaline, A Robin or A Wren, Gwendolyn, Bad Day Lately, Even I Can See, Natural Disaster, Save It For Me, Guess Again, Troubled, Half-Asleep
