Low will be celebrating their 20th anniversary by releasing their 10th album, The Invisible Way, on March 19, 2013 (the 18th in the UK).The album was produced by Wilco's Jeff Tweedy, engineered by Tom Schick and recorded in Wilco's studio in Chicago, IL, during the fall of 2012.
"While driving through Chicago on tour, we finally stopped to visit Wilco at their studio, The Loft," says guitarist/vocalist Alan Sparhawk. "They had invited us to come check it out several times over the years, but this would finally be the day...What really converted us was hearing the new Mavis Staples tracks they were working on - big, simple, raw and intimate. Plans were made then and there."
