Originally released in 1998, Mermaid Avenue, a collaborative album featuring original new music set to unpublished lyrics written by Woody Guthrie. Follow-up albums were released in 2000 and 2012 but without live performances.
Now, Wilco and Billy Bragg will be performing the album, in-full, together for the first time at Solid Sound Festival 2026 in North Adams, MA. The festival takes place June 26-28, 2026.
“The world needs all the Woody Guthrie it can get. We’re thrilled that we get to bring these songs to life with Billy,” Wilco's Jeff Tweedy says of the performance.
Solid Sound Festival began in 2010, conceived by Wilco and co-produced by Higher Ground Presents.
