My Morning Jacket coming to Minneapolis with new album, 'is'
My Morning Jacket is preparing to release its 10th studio album, is, an album title that will never, ever cause issues for people searching for the record online.
The album will be accompanied by a tour called "My Morning Jacket 'is' On Tour." The 18-date trek, with more shows to be announced soon, includes a three-night homecoming stint in Louisville.
It'll also bring them to The Armory in Minneapolis on April 20.
Their arrival in the Twin Cities will come just a couple of weeks after the March 21 release of is. Earlier this week, My Morning Jacket gave a preview, playing the lead single, "Time Waited," on Jimmy Kimmel Live!
For fans who have followed the band's quarter-century career, is will have a unique approach. The group rarely works with a producer, and Jim James, the band's lead singer and guitarist, has produced or co-produced every record since their 1999 debut, The Tennessee Fire. Here, they've teamed up with Grammy-winning producer Brendan O'Brien.
'Up until now I've never been able to let go and allow someone else to steer the ship,' James says. 'It almost felt like an out-of-body experience to step back and give control over to someone who's far more accomplished and made so many more records than us, but in the end, I was able to enjoy the process maybe more than I ever have before.'
The tour is currently on sale to members of the band's One Big Family 'Family Pass' program. A presale will take place on Thursday, Feb. 13 at 10 a.m. Tickets go on sale to the public the following morning at 10 a.m.

David Byrne announces 2025 tour, six NY shows. Get tickets today
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. It's back 'into the blue again' for David Byrne. Just days after releasing a Saorise Ronan-starring 'Psycho Killer' music video and surprising the Governors Ball crowd in red overalls midway through Olivia Rodrigo's scorching cover of 'Burning Down The House,' the former Talking Heads frontman announced his first album and solo tour in seven years. Starting in September, the 73-year-old Rock Hall of Famer will hit venues all over North America on his 'Who Is The Sky? Tour,' which is named after his new album due out Sept. 5 and features contributions from St. Vincent, Paramore's Hayley Williams, The Smile's drummer Tom Skinner, Ghost Train Orchestra and producer Kid Harpoon. Advertisement While out and about, Byrne has six (!) stops in New York planned. Up first, he'll bring his latest record — his ninth solo studio offering — to Schenectady's Proctors Theatre on Sunday, Sept. 21. After that, the man who made oversized suits cool drops into Syracuse's Landmark Theatre on Tuesday, Sept. 23 and Buffalo's Shea's Performing Arts Center on Thursday, Sept. 25. Finally, the Grammy winner closes his NY run with three shows at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall on Tuesday, Sept. 30, Wednesday, Oct. 1 and Friday, Oct. 10. At all shows, he'll be joined by a 13-member backing band made up of musicians, singers and dancers, some of whom were part of his 'American Utopia' ensemble. Per usual, all 'will be mobile throughout the set.' Advertisement 'I suspected that intimate orchestral arrangements would bring out the emotion I sense is there in these songs [from the forthcoming album],' Byrne said. 'It's something that folks don't always hear in my work, but this time for sure I thought it was there.' Fans Byrners can purchase tickets for all upcoming North American David Byrne shows on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale for the 'Who Is The Sky? Tour' is Friday, June 13. Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

David Byrne set list While the wily vocalist will likely lean into his new album on this run of shows, we wanted to give you an idea of what Byrne took to the stage on his 2018 'American Utopia Tour.' According to Set List FM, here's what he played at a gig in Australia (ahead of the long-standing Broadway stint that ran on and off from 2019-22): 01.) 'Here' 02.) 'Lazy' (X‐Press 2 cover) 03.) 'I Zimbra' (Talking Heads song) 04.) 'Slippery People' (Talking Heads song) 05.) 'I Should Watch TV' (David Byrne & St. Vincent song) 06.) 'Dog's Mind' 07.) 'Everybody's Coming to My House' 08.)

'Hell You Talmbout' (Janelle Monáe cover) David Byrne new music On Sept. 5, Byrne is scheduled to drop his ninth solo album 'Who Is The Sky?' Ahead of the record's release, he unveiled the lead single 'Everybody Laughs.' Clocking in at almost four minutes, the track is a joyous, almost tropical tune. Complete with Byrne's trademark staccato vocals and Ghost Train Orchestra's jaunty strings that are a bit reminiscent of George Michael's 'Freedom,' the song fits squarely in Byrne's canon. To hear for yourself, you can find 'Everybody Laughs' here. For an even closer look, here's the track list for 'Who Is The Sky.' 01.) 'Everybody Laughs' 02.) 'When We Are Singing' 03.) 'My Apartment Is My Friend' 04.) 'A Door Called No' 05.) 'What Is the Reason for It?' (feat. Hayley Williams) 06.) 'I Met the Buddha at a Downtown Party' 07.) 'Don't Be Like That' 08.)
