Wilco frontman Jeff Tweedy will return to MASS MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts for a benefit concert on Saturday, July 17. Tweedy will be joined by special guest Nels Cline, his Wilco band mate, at the show.
Proceeds from the concert will benefit MASS MoCA’s Joe Thompson “Yes” Fund, named in honor of the museum’s founding director who leaves the role after 33 years. The fund “will directly support the museum’s mission to champion artists and art-making in all forms.”

Jeff Tweedy is no stranger to MASS MoCA, as the venue is the home of Wilco’s Solid Sound Festival. The event was first held in 2011 and is expected to return in 2022. Tweedy shared the following about Joe Thompson:
And a Downtown Celebration. And SteepleCats games and a farmers market and movies at Colegrove Park and music at Windsor Lake. It s going to be the best summer ever, said the city s Tourism Director Suzy Helme. Helme was updating members of the North Adams Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday on the events that will be taking place this summer now that the state of emergency instituted during the pandemic is set to be lifted by mid-June. It was a lost summer last year for residents and tourists alike with the cancellation of several high-profile anniversaries including the city s 125th anniversary along with concerts, exhibitions and local community events.
