My Morning Jacket were joined by a very special guest during their Friday set at Newport Folk Fest: Animal.
The Electric Mayhem member sat in with the band for their set-ending performance of “One Big Holiday,” going toe to toe with drummer Patrick Hallahan.
MMJ’s Newport Folk performance also saw Maggie Rogers duet with frontman Jim James on a cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Say You Love Me,” and Margo Price and John Oates join the band to cover Carole King’s “I Feel the Earth Move.” Watch footage below.
