Loose Fur was an American rock supergroup formed in 2000, comprising Jeff Tweedy and Glenn Kotche of Wilco, along with Jim O'Rourke. The trio first convened in May 2000 for a festival performance in Chicago, where Tweedy collaborated with O'Rourke at his request. This collaboration expanded to include Kotche, leading to the formation of Loose Fur. The band released their self-titled debut album in 2003, followed by Born Again in the USA in 2006. The group was noted for its influence on Wilcoâs fourth album, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. O'Rourke and Kotche replaced members of Wilco during the recording sessions for that album, with Kotche continuing as a member of Wilco through 2007's Sky Blue Sky. Loose Fur disbanded in 2006.
