Listen to Jeff Tweedy Cover Twisted Teens’ “Wild Connection”
The Wilco frontman shared the cover of the Blame the Clown track to his Substack
The New Orleans group Twisted Teens is currently enjoying a surge in popularity. Just this year, they have released their third album, The Holy Cross Tigers, following February's Blame The Clown and July's Florida Water Blues. Recently, Jeff Tweedy, the frontman of Wilco, gave a stripped-down rendition of the band's track "Wild Connection" on his Substack newsletter.
Tweedy expressed his admiration for Twisted Teens, noting the unique quality of Caspian's voice, which often leads him to attempt an imitation while covering their songs. However, he strives to remain true to himself during these covers, sometimes even feeling as though he has transformed into a younger version of himself. Tweedy also recommended Angela Autumn's latest album, Believer, which he endorsed enthusiastically. Interested listeners can listen to his rendition of "Wild Connection" here.
