Monsters of Folk

What happens when you take Yim Yames ( Jim James of My Morning Jacket fame), Conor Oberst (also known by his work as Bright Eyes), indie rocker M. Ward, and Mike Mogis? Well...you get the indie/folk supergroup Monsters of Folk ! Separately all of these guys make some really solid music, so putting them together can only mean great things.

Their album is out now, pick it up HERE

Also they are currently on Tour , with their last US stop being in Philadelphia at the Academy of Music. This building is the oldest grand opera house in the United States still in use today. It's extremely rare for "newer" type groups to have the opportunity to play at the Academy so this is certainly a show not to miss.
