Monsters of Folk

American band

Monsters of Folk was an American supergroup, consisting of Jim James from My Morning Jacket; Conor Oberst and Mike Mogis from Bright Eyes; and M. Ward, solo artist and half of She & Him.

Will Johnson, solo artist and member of Centro-matic, played drums for the group during live performances, and, during their appearance on Austin City Limits, James called him "the fifth Monster". Ward stated in 2012 that their 2009 debut studio album is "definitely not a one-time thing", and was followed up by bonus material for the reissue by ATO Records in 2024.
