On August 18, 2023, at The Greek Theatre in Berkeley, fans of alternative music will bear witness to a great moment as beloved bands Fleet Foxes and My Morning Jacket take the stage together in Berkeley for a night of unforgettable live performances.

Meanwhile, My Morning Jacket has constantly pushed the boundaries of American rock-and-roll. Staying true to their roots while embracing exploration and innovation, their self-titled album marks their ninth studio release and features a beautifully balanced mix of discovery, revelation, and ecstatic catharsis.
The upcoming concert marks a significant milestone for the bands, who have both experienced challenges and changes throughout their respective careers. After a nearly permanent hiatus due to feelings of burnout, My Morning Jacket members pursued different projects individually before reuniting after a series of live performances in 2019. These shows, including a memorable night at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, rekindled the magic of the band's collective chemistry and inspired them to carry on with their musical journey.
With gates opening at 5:30 p.m. and the show starting at 7:00 p.m., dedicated fans will surely line up early to secure prime spots for this once-in-a-lifetime event. As an all-ages show, the evening promises to bring together a diverse audience of music lovers, all united in their appreciation for the groundbreaking and inspiring sounds of Fleet Foxes and My Morning Jacket.
