There’s not likely to be a better bargin this summer then the triple bill of Bob Dylan, Wilco and My Morning Jacket. The aging folk legend has certainly seen better days, but with two accomplished, contemporary groups in tow, the AmericanaramA tour will offer enough enough bang for your buck that you should be able to overlook Dylan’s raspy growl. The caravan rolls through Chicago on July 12 and may be the only hometown Wilco show of the year.

The record, Regions of Light and Sound of God, will be available via ATO Records, The Daves Matthews founded label will eb releasing it on February 5th. To coincide with the special release, James will be playing a trio of shows February 18th-20th in Philadelphia, Brooklyn and New York City. This round of shows will be the first time James will be playing without the rest of his bandmates in My Morning Jacket. He plays his very first at Johnny Brenda’s. If you didn’t act quick, you’re out of lucky as the concert is already sold out! So good luck hunting down tickets on Stubhub and Craigslist. It’s also pretty safe to assume that Jim James will be announcing some sort of a nationwide tour at some point this year so you can always wait for that as well.
