Jim James delivered a four-song sermon on the latest episode of Austin City Limits, performing highlights from his spiritual Regions of Light and Sound of God LP. The My Morning Jacket frontman and SPIN interview subject treated viewers to a suite of songs from his debut solo album: “State of the Art (A.E.I.O.U.),” “Know Til Now” (pre-disco remix), “A New Life,” and “Actress.” Now fans can watch the entire set, since the kind folks at PBS have made the whole 54-minute telecast available for streaming.

Like ACL‘s recent Vampire Weekend/Grizzly Bear twofer, James’ episode included a second headliner. Hometown heroes the Black Angels filled out the second half of the program, delivering a six-song performance that mostly focused on their latest album, the “Don’t Play With Guns”-featuring Indigo Meadow.
