My Morning Jacket has released a new video starring Zach Galifianakis—that is, if the video featuring a non-speaking, animated sketch of the Campaign actor counts as “starring.” The track, “Outta My System,” comes off the band’s new EP of the same name, which arrives Aug. 7 and features remixes by Washed Out and TV On The Radio’s Dave Sitek. Directed by James Frost, the video features MMJ frontman Jim James as a vision quest participant who jumps into a hole, becomes animated, and finds himself answering to the whims of Galifianakis' wizard character.
The band is currently on the road as part of its Spontaneous Curation tour, where each night it asks fans and concertgoers to curate the night’s set list via Twitter. Openers include Band Of Horses, Trombone Shorty, Trampled By Turtles, Shabazz Palaces, Iron And Wine, and Portugal. The Man.
