My Morning Jacket to Tour with Preservation Hall Jazz Band
1/29/10, 3:03 pm EST
My Morning Jacket has recruited New Orleans’ Preservation Hall Jazz Band for a short trek that begins April 20th in Birmingham, Alabama. MMJ frontman Jim James was inspired to bring the PHJB on the road after collaborating with the group on a pair of tracks for Preservation: An Album to Benefit Preservation Hall & the Preservation Hall Music Outreach Program, a compilation that teams the PHJB with vocalists like James, Tom Waits, Merle Haggard, Pete Seeger and many more. The comp is due out February 16th.
“When I got the invitation to go to the legendary Preservation Hall — where so much of the music we now know and love on this earth found its early roots — I did not waste a minute,” James said. “Getting to sing while the guys played with such glorious bursts of sound — all live in that holy room with the ghosts and garbage trucks crankin’ along — was an experience I’ll never forget.”
The Preservation Hall Jazz Band will open for MMJ on all dates. Check out the bands’ schedule — including sets at the Big Easy’s Jazzfest on April 24th — here:
