A new film presenting the Chicago band Wilco live in concert during their 2008 tour. Filmed and recorded from five quintessentially American concert venues - Cain's Ballroom in Tulsa, Tipitina's in New Orleans, The Mobile, AL Civic Center, The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. - the film captures the spirit, energy and poignancy of a Wilco concert and tour. Ashes of American Flags intersperses interviews with band members and day-in-the-life footage as the band travels across the U.S.
"As this gorgeously shot film shows, there is no band that can turn a
concert hall into a temple quite like Wilco."
- PopMatters
"This is not a live performance. It's too beautifully shot for
that. And the way they've worked in backstage interviews and pre-show
atmosphere, Ashes of American Flags is closer in spirit to Martin
Scorsese's celebrated concert film, The Last Waltz, but without the
sense of self-importance."
