Jim James
My Morning Jacket frontman Jim James is releasing a new solo album, Uniform Distortion, on June 29 via ATO. Previously he shared the album’s first single, “Just a Fool” (which was one of our Songs of the Week). Last night he stopped by The Late Show with Stephen Colbert to perform the song. The spirited performance was shot in black & white, just like the song’s video. Watch it below.
James also previously issued a lengthy statement about the album and its cover art, which you can read here.
James released an excellent solo album, the politically-charged Eternally Even, in the fall of 2016 via ATO (it was one of Under the Radar‘s Top 100 Albums of 2016). Last December James released Tribute To 2, an album of covers that was the sequel to his 2009 George Harrison covers EP Tribute To (which was also reissued last year).
My Morning Jacket released their last album, The Waterfall, in 2015. Read our 2015 interview with Jim James about the album.
