The North Mississippi Allstars are releasing their third album, Polaris, on the ATO Records label, Jambands.com reports. The album is due on September 9th. NMA opened for DMB during the summer 2002 tour in the southeast. ATO Records most recently signed Vusi Mahlasela in February and, before that, My Morning Jacket last fall. The North Mississippi Allstars is ATO Records' seventh artist since the company was launched in early 2000 by Coran Capshaw, Dave Matthews, Michael McDonald and Chris Tetzeli.
