Today's music is from "Big Decisions" by My Morning Jacket. It's the single from a forthcoming album. 


We learned Monday that My Morning Jacket, Mumford and Sons, and the Flaming Lips will be performing in the northeastern Iowa town of Waverly this summer.


Waverly was one of four small towns picked for a stop on the Gentlemen of the Road tour. 

In a statement Mumford and Sons described how the towns were selected:  "We get to put them on in towns not normally frequented by touring bands. We deliberately look for towns that have something unique, or some vibe of which they are proud, explore them and enjoy what they have to offer." 

They will be enjoying Waverly June 19-20.

More Morning Edition music
