My Morning Jackets Jim James will embark on a North American tour this spring in support of his latest solo album, Uniform Distortion.
The trek kicks off May 1st at Charleston Music Hall in Charleston, South Carolina and includes stops in cities like Atlanta, Dallas, St. Louis, Washington D.C. and Philadelphia. The tour wraps May 25th at the Bluebird Music Festival in Boulder, Colorado, where James will play a solo acoustic set. James has a few more festival dates scheduled throughout the summer as well, including a set at Bonnaroo.
Last year, James embarked on solo acoustic tour, so his upcoming trek will mark his first with a full band in support of Uniform Distortion. The shows will feature a mix of songs from that album and selections from the rest of his catalogue.
