Jeff Tweedy and his band, Wilco have been very open about letting fans download their music, and have offered a new song,
What Light, for download (after all the tour info). Wilco falls under the "alt pop music" label, but it's got so much country, real country music as a base that it feels more real than most of the stuff on the alt rock station.
It's a good song for a gloomy day in which you're not feeling too hot.
*I hate to speculate, but I wonder how much therapy literature Jeff Tweedy has been reading in the last year or so.
