My Morning Jacket have just announced that they’ll be releasing a 20th anniversary reissue of their debut 1999 album, The Tennessee Fire.
The Tennessee Fire: Deluxe Edition, which drops on August 2nd via Darla, includes “16 previously unreleased and unheard, lost songs, demo outtakes, alternative versions, and more,” according to a release. Additionally, the band have announced that they’ll be playing the record in its entirety in a one-off show at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, New York on August 9th. Every ticket will benefit their Waterfall Project, which is “dedicated to supporting and promoting actions, big and small, for positive change in the world.”
“Wow. I cannot believe it has now been over 20 years since we recorded The Tennessee Fire on my cousin John’s grandparents farm out in Shelbyville, KY in a little studio called ‘Above the Cadillac,'” frontman Jim James explains in a statement on Instagram. “What a life changing time that was for me — a cosmic door opening to a new universe, thanks to the generosity of family and the spirits of music and connection, I have been so lucky to encounter.”
