My Morning Jacket with Durand Jones & the Indications
Hailing from Louisville, Kentucky, My Morning Jacket are widely regarded as one of the greatest live bands of their generation. From performing at Madison Square Garden to being nominated for multiple Grammy awards, their achievements show no signs of slowing down. The quintet's sixth studio album, Circuital -- which debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 -- was recorded almost entirely live to capture an honest spirit and human spontaneity throughout the listening experience.
Since forming in 1998 the group has boldly tackled new genres and ideas on each album, maintaining a perpetual evolution that is thrilling, innovative, and impossible to predict. Frontman Jim James has an immediately recognizable voice that is iconic in its own right. Soulful and enigmatic all at once, his golden tenor can command an audience equally with heartbreaking fragility or unfettered power. My Morning Jacket's spectacle of a live show has become the stuff of legend, and the band has become a staple headliner at countless major music festivals.
