Since 1998, Jim James has led My Morning Jacket. In the early 2000s, the band’s blend of Southern rock, psychedelia, dub, classic songcraft, loner country, and experimental folk put them on the forefront of festival stages. And now, James has a new solo album: Wowed Out. It’s his first solo music in eight years, and a killer return to form. Touching on soul, psychedelic pop, folk, and ambient sounds, it’s some of the most spiritual music James has ever recorded, and tellingly, this conversation takes a heady, mystical turn.
