Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy has announced his second book, How to Write One Song, which hits stores on October 13th via Dutton Books. The book follows the release of Tweedy’s 2019 memoir, Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back).
As the title suggests, How to Write One Song will delve into Tweedy’s songwriting process, showing the work that goes into writing a single song. As the press release notes, “By setting a goal of creating just one song from the ground up, the songwriting project becomes a focused, self-contained event, the mystery and fear subsides, and songwriting becomes an exciting pursuit.”
“The feeling I get when I write—the sense that time is simultaneously expanding and disappearing—that I’m simultaneously more me and also free of me—is the main reason I wanted to put my thoughts on songwriting down in book form to share with everyone so inclined,” says Tweedy.
How to Write One Song is available for pre-order now. You can find our review of Let’s Go (So We Can Get Back) here, and our review of Tweedy’s hilarious and moving 2018 Montreal solo show here.
