My Morning Jacket almost didn’t make it this far. In 2004, while touring their milestone 2003 album It Still Moves, the band fragmented. Two members quit, including keyboardist Danny Cash and guitarist Johnny Quaid, the cousin and right-hand man to MMJ mastermind Jim James. Despondent, James considered this might be the end of the band, until his publisher begged him to at least entertain the idea of auditioning new members. James, bassist Tom Blankenship, and drummer Patrick Hallahan reluctantly relented. The first two people to walk in the door were Carl Broemel and Bo Koster.
