My Morning Jacket announce new album 'is'

Iconic rock band My Morning Jacket have kicked off their new year with the announcement of their highly-anticipated tenth studio album 'is', set for release on the 21st March via ATO Records. Produced by three-time GRAMMY® Award-winner Brendan O’Brien (Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam), the new record marks the band’s first full-length release in over three years.

The album is heralded by the release of its lead single 'Time Waited', a lush, romantic track that blends wide-eyed optimism with a poignant reflection on love’s fragility. The single is accompanied by an official music video, directed by Danny Clinch, featuring new performance footage intertwined with archival photos chronicling the band’s storied history.

The inspiration for 'Time Waited' came from a sample of a piano part from pedal-steel virtuoso Buddy Emmons’ lost classic album, Emmons Guitar Inc. “I made a loop of that piano intro and listened as I went for a walk, and all these melodies started coming to me,” says vocalist/guitarist Jim James.

“For a long time, I didn’t have lyrics, but then I had a dream where I was in a cafe and a song was playing, and the lyrics to that song became the lyrics to Time Waited. The melodies just fit perfectly. The lyrics are about how flexible time is, how we can bend and warp time, especially if we are following our hearts. The universe and time itself can flow to work with us.”
