"My Morning Jacket, National Award – My Morning Jacket is considered one of the top live rock acts in the world and can claim a discography with a depth of artistry that rivals many in the great American lexicon of popular music. Their music combines experimentalism, heartfelt emotion and unforgettable songs. Their collective interplay is rooted in a decade of friendship and music making forged in their hometown of Louisville. From their early days playing clubs, parties and community centers in Louisville, to recording their first three albums in Shelbyville, My Morning Jacket has brought much acclaim to their home state during the last decade. The members of My Morning Jacket are Jim James, Tom Blankenship, Patrick Hallahan, Bo Koster and Carl Broemel."
The fact that my heart's beating is all the proof you need.

"We are humbled and honored to receive this award," said My Morning Jacket's Jim James. "Kentucky is a place of great magic, inspiration, and creativity, a place where forces align to make dreams come true and people come together, and we are proud to call it home."
