The Speed of Sound with Kyle Meredith: Jim James

As the story goes, My Morning Jacket’s Jim James had been working on scoring a soundtrack when the studio fired him for being too weird. The jams wouldn’t go completely unheard though thanks to some unfortunately inspiration due to the political climate and world happenings. Still, the resulting solo album, Eternally Even, isn’t a completely dark record, thanks to an unflinching optimism in humanity that Jim carries.
