My Morning Jacket will release their new self-titled studio album on October 22 via ATO Records.

Announced today, the 11-track album is the follow-up to the act’s 2015 studio album The Waterfall, which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Alternative Music Album. The first single (and opening track) from the new record titled “Regularly Scheduled Programming” comes with a music video co-directed by singer Jim James and George Mays.

James said this about the new single and the band’s upcoming album:

“This song really hits home for me after what we’ve gone through with the pandemic. But even before then, it felt like so many of us were trading real life for social media, trading our own stories for the storylines on TV, trading our consciousness for drugs. We need to help each other wake up to real love before it's too late.

I hope this album brings people a lot of joy and relief, especially since we’ve all been cooped up for so long. I know that feeling you get from driving around blasting music you love, or even lying in bed and crying to the music you love. The fact that we’re able to be a part of people’s lives in that way is so magical to us, and it feels really good that we’re still around to keep doing that.”

Pre-orders for the album are live here.
