Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Morning Glory

My Morning Jacket have achieved a balance all too rare in the increasingly disposable idiom of modern rock music. In a career spanning more than a decade, they have broadened their appeal beyond the savvy indie rock and Americana fans who originally claimed them and crossed over into popular consciousness. But they’ve done so without sacrificing the power, intelligence or artistic integrity of the music that endeared them to fans in the first place. This is one of America’s truly great rock bands, and they are nothing short of transcendent live. Find out when they play the Midway Lawn at the Champlain Valley Expo this Friday.
