My Morning Jacket Live Review St Augustine 2023 Feature

LIVE REVIEW: My Morning Jacket w/ Wilderado at St. Augustine Amp (June 15)

by Savannah Moore • June 17, 2023

I had the pleasure of spending my Thursday evening at the beautiful St. Augustine Amphitheater for the kick-off of My Morning Jacket’s American tour. The show was rain or shine and the weather chose not to shine. Nevertheless, Wilderado and My Morning Jacket transformed the rainy venue, creating a warm inviting space filled with love and gratitude. Wilderado started the night out with a 30-minute set playing hit songs like “Surefire” and “Take Some Time”.

Louisville-bred band My Morning Jacket has cut their teeth touring for over two decades. With a genre-defying, unpredictable, psychedelic, transcendent, and dynamic sound, it’s easy to see why they are hailed one of the best bands to see live. They didn’t let the rain stop them on Thursday, playing a two-and-a-half-hour set at the St. Augustine Amphitheater. Lead singer, Jim James’ soaring vocals were mesmerizing and most songs effortlessly ended up in a crowd-wilding extended jam. They have a beloved fan group and everyone had a fantastic time even though the weather was not the best. It was truly a pleasure to see them perform live. My Morning Jacket has a lengthy lineup of shows throughout the end of the year. If you missed the show be sure to check them out on one of their North American tour dates throughout the rest of the year. If you have the opportunity to go to one, I guarantee they won’t disappoint.
