JEFF TWEEDY

"The Unwritten Book" is a memoir and essay collection that finds beauty in impermanence.

The National Symphony Orchestra (NSO) rehearses for a show as the musicians resume live performances while navigating a maelstrom of Covid-19 rules. At the start of 2020, the NSO was planning its first international tour with conductor Gianandrea Noseda. Instead, the coronavirus pandemic forced the ensemble out of the concert hall at the Kennedy Center in the US capital for 18 months. "I enjoy the present," Noseda says. "I am here and now is fantastic, it’s a gift for me to be here."

In a statement after the killing of George Floyd last summer, Tweedy wrote, "The modern music industry is built almost entirely on Black art. The wealth that rightfully belonged to Black artists was stolen outright." There need to be more Black artists, more Black women artists, who are headlining and on the main stages of festivals." Tweedy has been deeply influenced by Black artists, like his fellow Chicagoan Mavis Staples, for whom he's produced three albums. Tweedy's publishing company, BMI, told CBS News it has received a small number of requests to direct royalties like Tweedy has done.
