Once again, My Morning Jacket has partnered with PLUS1 with $1 from each ticket supporting non-profits working to secure social justice, ensure mental health care for all, and confront the climate crisis.
The tour begins April 19 at Memphis, TN’s Orpheum Theatre and then continue through September. Special guests throughout the tour will include Madison Cunningham, Indigo De Souza, and Joy Oladokun.
The upcoming dates see My Morning Jacket continuing to celebrate last year’s acclaimed new album, My Morning Jacket. Produced and engineered by Jim James over two multi-week sessions at Los Angeles, CA’s 64 Sound, My Morning Jacket is the band’s ninth studio album and reaffirms the rarefied magic that’s made My Morning Jacket so beloved, embedding every groove with moments of discovery, revelation and ecstatic catharsis. The album made an explosive chart debut upon its October release, arriving at #1 on Billboard’s “Top Vinyl” along with #3 on both “Top Rock Albums” and “Independent Albums.”
Highlights include a very special pair of shows in Louisville, KY – My Morning Jacket’s first hometown live dates in six years. The weekend will feature amazing Louisville musicians and local eateries while also shining a light on non-profits doing incredible work in the Derby City, beginning Friday, June 24 with an intimate concert at Iroquois Amphitheater, with proceeds supporting Change Today, Change Tomorrow (CTCT), a Louisville-based non-profit working to fight racial injustice in education, access to healthy food, and proper health care; special guests include River City Drum Corps and Kiana & the Sun Kings. On Saturday, June 25, My Morning Jacket will then headline Louisville’s Waterfront Park, with support from Louisville Leopard Percussionists and Producing a Kind Generation. Tickets for June 24 will be available exclusively as an added option bundled with purchase of tickets for Waterfront Park – standalone tickets will not be available.

PRAISE FOR MY MORNING JACKET:
“Its killer ninth album, My Morning Jacket, is an 11-song set that channels
an energy as loose and loud as their bombastic live act.”
– Esquire
"What keeps MMJ interesting is that their music never becomes too comfortable.
It’s a spectacular vision where nothing ever seems quite settled."
– Rolling Stone
“In many ways, the release feels like a line in the sand, an obvious new
beginning…Musically, they honed in on core elements of their identity…Back in 2011, the
story about Circuital was that it was the closest the band had gotten to approximating
their legendary live sound. My Morning Jacket gets far closer — there’s a raw, rollicking
quality to the album, with several songs you could easily imagine deriving from various
eras of MMJ’s career.”
– Stereogum
"The loneliness of modern existence is one of the focuses on the new album, as is the
healing power of love, with both forces expressed through the music and necessary to
the creation of it."
– Billboard
"The most live-sounding studio LP of their career...capturing the unbridled energy and
adventurous, journeyman spirit that made them the rare act to hold dual-citizenship
at Coachella and Bonnaroo back when those festivals felt worlds apart."
– Relix
"My Morning Jacket is a band, maybe the last band, in these cynical end times...MMJ
feels like the last child, a rock and roll bastard living out its own mythology one album,
one tour, one show, one solo, one encore at a time. We’re living in their narrative. We’re
in the movie."
– FLOOD
“My Morning Jacket has every mark of a great MMJ album: widespread jam numbers,
thoughtful lyrics that speak to the times, and a brush with the psychedelic.”
– Paste
"My Morning Jacket is MMJ's most satisfying work since 2008's Evil Urges, and a
splendid example of what can happen when their group mind is in sync."
– All Music
"The band's self-titled new record is stellar."
– American Songwriter
“The magic of this group has always been their ability to turn the elemental into the
transcendental. It is a miracle they pull off frequently on 'My Morning Jacket',
with confidence and inspiration, every moment a fresh beginning.”
– MOJO (4 stars)
