Wilco percussionist Glenn Kotche and guitarist Nels Cline will hit the road together for a handful of dates this fall, beginning Sept. 18 at Lincoln Center in New York. Kotche will be supporting his most recent release, “Mobile” (Nonesuch), which was released in March. Cline will be supporting material from his last two Cryptogramophone sets, “Instrumentals” and “The Giant Pin” (which featured Jon Brion and Deerhoof drummer Greg Saunier).
Kotche will also be featured at the Modern Drummer Festival Weekend 2006 on Sept. 16. Other artists set to perform at the event include Death Cab For Cutie’s Jason McGerr, the Police’s Stewart Copeland, Mastodon’s Brann Dailor and Danny Seraphine.
Meanwhile, work continues on Wilco’s new album. Having just played Lollapalooza in Chicago, Wilco will regroup for three shows in early October; frontman Jeff Tweedy will play solo on Aug. 16 at the North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh and at the Folks Festival in Lyons, Colo., on Aug. 18.
