My Morning Jacket

My Morning Jacket est un groupe rock formé à Louisville, Kentucky, É.-U., en 1998. Le groupe est reconnu pour ses chansons aériennes, atmosphériques, avec des incursions plus folk ou country parfois, et pour l'utilisation de reverb dans la voix du chanteur Jim James, une tendance qui s'est toutefois atténué sur le quatrième album, Z, lancé en octobre 2005. La voix de James, qui compose les chansons du groupe, a parfois été comparée à celle de Neil Young.

Le nom du groupe a été choisi après que James ait aperçu un vieux veston (jacket) sur lequel étaient inscrites les lettres MMJ, devenu l'acronyme de My Morning Jacket.

Le groupe, formé en 1998, a lancé deux albums de façon indépendante sur étiquette Darla Records, avant de signer sur ATO Records en 2002. Ils ont depuis fait paraître deux autres albums. De manière générale, chacun de leurs quatre albums a reçu des critiques positives. Leurs performances live inspirées suscitent également un grand enthousiasme.
