My Morning Jacket Lose Guitarist

My Morning Jacket have welcomed Carl Broemel and Bo Koster to the group following the departure of original guitarist Johnny Quaid and keyboard player Danny Cash.

The line-up change comes before the band embark on their first US tour of the year.

The two departing members left the following statements on the band's website.

Quaid: "To the fans and comrades all over the world, thanks for letting me and us live this dream, it's all I ever wanted, but now all I want is at home."

Cash: "As much as I love the band and the music we make, it's just not worth sacrificing my home life. So now, everybody wins: the band gets a touring keyboard player/driver/roadie who loves his job and I get to be home in Louisville and spend time with my family and friends and start my own business."
