Tweedy is an American rock band composed of Jeff Tweedy, from the group Wilco, and his son, Spencer. The duo has released one album, Sukierae, in 2014.[1]
The elder Tweedy had planned Sukierae to be a solo record, but kept Spencer involved after playing together on early sessions.[2] The group's album name references Susie, Jeff's wife and Spencer's mother, who was diagnosed with cancer during the composition process.[3]
When touring, as of 2014 the group included bassist Darin Gray, guitarist Jim Elkington, keyboardist-guitarist Liam Kazar (Cunningham),[2] and sometimes singer Sima Cunningham (Liam's sister).[citation needed]
Spencer Tweedy had played drums with his father on a previous record, Mavis Staples' One True Vine, which Jeff Tweedy produced.[4]
