New Wilco - "I Might"
Wilco unveiled the first cut off their eighth LP — possibly titled The Whole Love — tonight: “I Might,” the A-side to their new 7” single, backed by a cover of Nick Lowe’s “I Love My Label.” Within hours of airing on local radio stations and being performed live at the band’s Solid Sound Festival, the tune has hit the web. “Well, it doesn’t sound like Lady Gaga,” Tweedy told Spin of the catchy number, “but it’s our way of being obnoxious.”
