		Only two men have been there from the beginning of Wilco’s long and slow climb to prominence, and John Stirratt, the band’s bassist and all-around underrated secret weapon, is one of them.
		Stirratt took time out from the road to discuss his role in the ever-changing world of Wilco, the artistic necessity of stepping out with his various side-projects and the challenges of keeping a band artistically vibrant at the 10-year mark.
		Stirratt: Yeah, I mean if I’m a hired gun things are in a sad state of affairs (laughs).

		John: “That song was originally recorded for the Courtesy Move record in ’98, but I thought it could have a life on this record, fitting in with the country pop stylings.”
		John: “We were looking for a Nashville circa 1980 mood and we got it in spades.

		He had this to say, "Before he became the bassist for Uncle Tupelo and Wilco, John Stirratt was a singer-songwriter in the legendary roots-rock band The Hilltops with his sister Laurie and her future husband Cary Hudson.
		Almost as impressive is Stirratt's "Old House", with a restless guitar hook that evokes the timeless dilemma of a small-town kid pulled between the ties of home and the opportunities of the wider world.

		The Stirratts were raised in a family of lapsed musicians, John Stirratt says.
		Stirratt, who briefly contemplated graduate school, eventually joined Uncle Tupelo, first as a guitar tech, then as a full-fledged member, just in time to watch the band implode during the recording of their last album, "Anodyne." "The Hilltops had gotten Uncle Tupelo a gig in our hometown, and we kind of became friends," Stirratt remembers.
		Stirratt, currently on tour with Wilco, will open for himself at the duo's upcoming record release party, and hopes to regroup with Sansone sometime this winter to record a new Autumn Defense album.

		Music geeks love to talk about "discovery records," the ones they were turned onto when they first began listening to music that wasn't necessarily from their parents' collections.
		Stirratt's acceptance of the city lifestyle is comparable to Wilco's evolution from roots-music stalwarts to sleek experimentalists.
		Later, when John was in high school and college, he began to unearth music for himself.

	Preview : Perfect Circles : The Autumn Defense is a satisfying Wilco side project :: The Cleveland Free Times :: ...
		Ostensibly a duo with Stirratt and fellow multi-instrumentalist Pat Sansone, the Autumn Defense is an example of pastoral pop at its finest, hinting at a broad range of influences from a wide spectrum of genres, artists and eras and an equally diverse audience appeal.
		Stirratt and Sansone met in the late '80s while members of mutually admired bands in the Southeast, but didn't actually begin interacting musically until they both wound up living in New Orleans in 1998.
		One of the pair's conscious goals was to incorporate more of Sansone's material; to that end, Sansone and Stirratt each contributed two songs they had written on their own and then collaborated on the remainder of the album.

		Recorded live in Black’s basement, the debut album (on Laurie and John Stirratt’s label, Broadmoor Records) is done right – it has the immediacy and urgency of a Stax record.
		Stirratt and drummer, Ryan Juravic, both possess the seemingly extinct talent of knowing when to fill (and when not to fill).
		Surrounded by the positive influences of Stirratt, Juravic, and his wife, Tiffanie Beeman, Black finds that he enjoys playing music again, and the creative juices are flowing more than ever – we can expect follow up to this debut in early 2006.

		John Stirratt has his fingers in more than a few pies — he is, of course, a member of Wilco, and another of his projects, the Autumn Defense, have released two dreamy pop albums.
		On Arabella, he collaborates with his twin sister, Laurie, and the two of them have come up with a languid country-folk album that’s as welcome as a cool zephyr on a swampy summer afternoon.
		If like the many others before him John should find himself pink-slipped by Jeff Tweedy, he could do worse than make Laurie and John a full-time gig.

		The band, featuring John Stirratt of Wilco and Pat Sansone, appreciates unorthodox venues for their increased audience connection.
		While his contribution to Wilco can also be described as evocative, Stirratt has focused less on stretching genres with The Autumn Defense and more on reapplying the familiar and now nostalgic styles of music that influenced him growing up, including the Beach Boys and David Crosby.
		It was through their connection over this genre of music that Stirratt bonded with Pat Sansone, a multi-instrumentalist who has collaborated with such artists as Joseph Arthur and Josh Rouse.
