My Morning Jacket
Formed in 1998 by Jim James (actual name: James Olliges, Jr) and three members of the emo-punk band Winter Death Club, My Morning Jacket were acclaimed for their Southern rock and roll, heavily infused by rhythm and blues. Their debut album was 1999's The Tennessee Fire . After releasing At Dawn in 2001, the band made their major-label debut on ATO Records with the 2003 release It Still Moves. The new label had a positive effect on sales, as the album was the band's first to chart in the US (peaking at number 121) and broke into the Top 100 in the UK and Sweden. Their success continued to climb with Z, their fourth studio album, released in 2005, which peaked at number 67 in the US. It was their first album not produced by Jim James. Along with their recorded work, My Morning Jacket also gained a reputation as a must-see live band. They released a number of live recordings and headlined major festivals around the world, in addition to pairing with diverse musical acts, including a pair of 2006 concerts with the Boston Pops at Boston's Symphony Hall. 2008 saw the release of the band's breakthrough album Evil Urges. It peaked at number 9 on the US charts (making it to number 2 on the alternative and indie charts), and was announced with an earth shattering four-hour set at the 2008 Bonnaroo Music Festival. The album was considered one of the year's best by a number of publications, including Rolling Stone and Spin. Their follow up, Circuital, was released in 2011, and topped even the success of their previous album, peaking at number 5 on the US charts and number 1 on the US indie chart. After a four-year break, the band returned with The Waterfall in 2015.
