My Morning Jacket will return to the road this summer with a headline tour, performances at the Electric Forest and Peach Festivals and their first concert at historic Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, NY. The amphitheatre run will kick off in Cincinnati, OH on June 22 and include shows in Nashville, TN (July 7) and Columbia, MD (July 14). See below for dates and opening acts, which will include The Record Company, Margo Price, Gary Clark Jr., Jaw Gems and The Districts.

A limited number of tickets are still available for the July 15 concert at Forest Hills Stadium, which will be the band's only 2017 New York City performance. One dollar from every ticket purchased will benefit My Morning Jacket's Waterfall Project. Established in 2015, the Project is dedicated to supporting and promoting actions, big and small, for positive change in the world.

My Morning Jacket will also be performing at Outlaw Music Festival at the Lakeview Amphitheater in Syracuse, NY on July 16th. The event will be hosted by Willie Nelson, with Sheryl Crow and Margo Price also performing. More details on Outlaw Music Festival here.

The Denver Post said, "My Morning Jacket...[is] among the top live bands in any genre, anywhere." 2015's The Waterfall (ATO /Capitol Records), My Morning Jacket's seventh studio album, earned the band its third consecutive GRAMMY® nomination in the Best Alternative Music Album category. Following My Morning Jacket's spring 2016 tour, Jim James released a new solo album, Eternally Even (ATO Records/Capitol Records). Stereogum praised its "raw, exquisitely textured glory" and NPR listeners voted it as one of 2016's top albums.
