Presentation

Jim James Solo Tour

With Special Guest Alynda Segarra from Hurray for the Riff Raff

7:30 p.m. Tuesday, November 20, 2018

The charismatic front man of My Morning Jacket makes his Schermerhorn debut as part of a unique, career-spanning solo-acoustic concert tour. Accompanied by longtime touring drummer David Givan, Jim James will perform highlights from his MMJ and solo catalogues, including songs from his latest collection, Uniform Distortion.

“I am looking forward to exploring all sorts of songs stripped down as they first occurred in their natural habitat – just voice and guitar. Although I have played many shows by myself, this will be my first tour of this style, and I am excited to see everyone out on the open road,” says James.

One dollar per ticket purchased will go to The Waterfall Project, whose beneficiaries will be United for a Fair Economy and National Bail Fund Network.

Tickets for this performance will be delivered two weeks prior to the concert date.
