Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit Live in Concert

Jason Isbell was born into a musical family in Green Hill, Alabama, in 1979. His grandfather and uncle taught him to play various musical instruments, and the young musician started playing the mandolin when he was just 6. Destined for a life in the spotlight, he joined the Drive-By Truckers in 2001 at the age of 22. Isbell was a member of the Drive-By Truckers for six years before cutting out for a solo career. He released his first solo album, Sirens of the Ditch, in 2007. Some of his most notable work began when he assembled a group of musicians that would become known as The 400 Unit. The group consists of Sadler Vaden  of Drivin' N Cryin' on guitar, Jimbo Hart on bass, Derry deBorja on keyboards and accordion, Chad Gamble on drums and Isbell's wife Amanda Shires on fiddle. The 400 Unit is playfully named after the psychiatric ward of Eliza Coffee Memorial Hospital in Florence, Alabama. Isbell and the band's first collaboration resulted in the release of the self-titled album Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit in 2009. In 2011, the collaboration continued with the release of Here We Rest. The track "Alabama Pines" was named Song of the Year at the 2012 Americana Music Awards. The Nashville Sound was released in 2017, winning the Grammy Award for Best Americana Album, with Isbell winning an additional Grammy Award for Best American Roots Song. In 2020, the group released Reunions, with the song "Be Afraid" hitting No. 5 on the Adult Alternative Songs chart. During the November 2020 election, Isbell announced he would make a charity album if Joe Biden won the state of Georgia. When this came to pass, Isbell worked to release the cover album Georgia Blue the following year. The album was a collaboration by various artists, and Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit contributed a cover of the Metallica song "Sad But True." Isbell has won four Grammy Awards between 2001 and 2007.

    Jason

    by Larkwood on 4/4/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    This was our 8th time seeing Jason so clearly, we are big fans. We have been to the Tabernacle in Atlanta to see Jason and some other acts and it is probably our favorite venus in Atlanta. We felt that it was one of his better shows, that featured a retrospective of his career going back to his days with Drive by Truckers. The staff of the venue were polite, and able to get us in quickly, ushers were available at every aisle and were helpful. We spend time in one of the lounges before the show and it was well staffed and comfortable. We were seated on the 300 level and the stairs to our seats is quite steep, but there is a handrail to assist. Exiting is very easy as there are doorways on every level. There is parking nearby for those that wish to drive and taxis are readily available to those that don't. We stayed at the Hilton downtown and walked to the venue and there are many other hotels nearby.

    A great show!

    by Jimmy on 4/3/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Long time Jason Isbell fan, first time seeing him in person. What a great show and the Tabernacle in Atlanta is one awesome place to watch a concert. Definitely hope to see Jason and The 400 unit again and would not hesitate to come back to the Tabernacle!

    Amazing, as always

    by Jimmy B on 4/3/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Good mix of songs throughout the catalog! A couple of “Southeastern” songs to kick it off, some heady songs like “King of Oklahoma” that turned into barn burners, perennial crowd pleaser “Super 8”, a look back at DBT tunes (“Decoration Day”), and even an encore from The Cure (“Just Like Heaven”)!

    Jason Isbell NEVER Disappoints

    by Liz C on 4/3/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Jason Isbell never disappoints as he performed four nights in a row at the tabernacle, and I had the pleasure of hitting two shows. Standing up the entire time, dancing your butt off, listening to him, built out our favorites. He sounded amazing…I love his sound, his vibe, his energy❤️

    Isbell awesome, Tabernacle overcrowded

    by LoveGAmusic on 4/2/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Anyone who appreciates high quality songwriting and/or killer guitar playing should go see Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. But, if you want to enjoy the show without rude, entitled people shoving you out of the way in general admission, buy a seat at the Tabernacle or go to an entirely different venue.

    Awesome show

    by Carrie on 4/2/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Best show ever!! So much talent on that stage!! The music was fantastic! The energy between the band members was so good! You could tell the band is like a family. Jason sounds just as good in person as he does on his records. I feel like his prices are fair also. I’ve seen him twice, and have 2 more shows to attend this year. He is by far one of my most favorite artists, and his band is equally as great! Love Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit!!

    by Cathy H on 4/2/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    I flew from Philly to see all 4 nights of Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit at the Tabernacle in Atlanta, GA. All 4 nights were fantastic. JI/400U always put on a stellar performance. The venue was gorgeous, staff considerate, everything was great. I would definitely go again. Thank you!

    Isbell and the 400 U brought so much fire that I fainted!

    by A Brown on 4/2/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    Saw Isbell and the 400 Unit at the Tabernacle on Saturday night. We were about 6 rows back. He and the crew were on FIYAH! So much so that I fainted. I mean, it was pretty hot down there in that standing room only mix. Disclaimer-I also have 3 bulging discs and my left leg was going numb (here's your sign that you might be too old to be in a standing pit type situation). I told my husband to get me out of there and quick because I thought I was going to faint. When we got out of the main room I told the security guard that I needed to sit down and she pointed to an area upstairs. Down I went before I could make it up the stairs. The medic crew took me to the back and gave me water and an ice pack for my neck. I could no longer see the show but I could feel it, and even in a medic room, the energy and synergy were electric. It is very telling when you can still enjoy a show in a medic room. This is the same way I have always felt about Willie Nelson. I don't have to see him, and even at his concerts I have purposefully closed my eyes and listened to his guitar telling me stories. Kudos to the medic crew for being so kind, nice, and accommodating to this 52 year old concert going dinosaur. It is nice to know that a crew like that is there should the need come. I kept telling my husband to go enjoy the show but he wouldn't leave my side. Isbell's new choppers don't affect his vocals (praise the Lord-they always said that Freddie Mercury didn't alter his teeth because he was afraid that it would affect his vocals) and they are about as bright and shiny as the jewels dangling from his pants. I don't know how he has done it but Isbell has turned himself into a stronger, leaner, and more invigorating version of himself. We counted that this was about our 10th show. The whole crew was volcanic in the best kind of way (maybe that explains the heat). I miss Jimbo (JIMBO), however, Anna brings her own sumpthin' sumpthin' to the stage and it is welcomed. No goodbye to you Jimbo, just see ya later (hopefully in seats). The last song I heard on the floor (which was pretty early on) was "King of Oklahoma". I wish like heck I had taken a picture (or at least recorded) Isbell's face when he sings "coffee"because that face alone tells a story but I know how funny he is about pulling out your phone during a show so I didn't but I sure wish that I had. The first time I heard Isbell and the 400 Unit was live (for real) and it was in Montgomery and we were in balcony seats. When they played "Elephant"I had tears running down my face. I have never had a reaction like that at a concert, nor have I ever fainted. Here's looking at you Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. "Could it be the satisfaction of being understood When the people really love you and let you know when it's good" I tip my hat. It is better than good. The venue was super cool, gothic carnival orchestra kind of cool. I would go again (in seats). Ha!

    Good, not great

    by ChathamRabbit on 4/2/24Tabernacle - Atlanta

    I was very excited for this concert, because I am really into Jason Isbell music currently. Not sure if it was a tuning thing or the acoustics of where I was in the building which was overcrowded. But I could not hear the vocals well. Seem to have been over played by the instrumentals. Was still a great experience, but wish I could have heard better.
