MJ Lenderman and his backing band The Wind played Wilco's Mexico destination festival Sky Blue Sky on Friday, and he closed out his set by bringing out one of his musical heroes, J Mascis (whose band Dinosaur Jr are playing Sunday), to cover a song by one of their shared musical heroes, Neil Young. They did a jammed-out rendition of "Lotta Love" from 1978's Comes A Time, turning the two-and-a-half-minute song into eight minutes of guitar-solo-filled bliss. Check out a video below.

Will Johnson (Centro-matic, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit) and the late Jason Molina's former band Magnolia Electric Co have been touring together as Magnolia & Johnson Electric Co, and on Friday night (10/12) they stopped in Asheville, NC for a show at The Grey Eagle, where they brought out a very notable Asheville native, MJ Lenderman. He joined them on a rendition of "The Dark Don't Hide It," and you can watch attendee-taken video below.

Frequent collaborators Waxahatchee (aka Katie Crutchfield) and MJ Lenderman have announced a 2026 co-headlining North American tour, where the artists will perform separately as solo artists and together. The 18-date tour kicks off in Atlanta on April 13th, with subsequent stops in cities including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Washington, DC, and a requisite show in Toronto to qualify as a North American trek. All dates will feature support from Brennan Wedl.
