In celebration of My Morning Jacket's forthcoming album, Circuital, the band started giving away six weekly downloads beginning yesterday, March 3rd. The first five downloads will be live songs taken from each night of their historic week at New York's Terminal 5 in October of 2010.
On the sixth week, the band will offer up a brand new song from the new album. Head to http://www.mymorningjacket.com to sign up for all six songs now and immediately receive the first song taken from their first night at Terminal 5.
Circuital was recorded in Louisville, KY and Nashville, TN, and was co-produced by frontman Jim James and Tucker Martine (R.E.M., Sufjan Stevens, The Decemberists). While in Louisville, the birthplace of the band and where three fifths of the guys are from, they recorded in the unique environment of a gymnasium inside of a church. They laid down almost everything live and allowed room for spontaneity.
In addition to getting reacquainted with their roots, the guys opted for a loose and warm production style for the album. The result is yet another reinvention of their sound that both forges new ground and maintains the distinct spirit of My Morning Jacket's previous work.
