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.

    Rude people ruined the show

    by A fan Mc on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    As soon as the show started everyone stood up. They continued to stand for the next 2 hours. Not dancing. Not moving. Just standing. In the way. We had good seats. But everyone standing blocked most of our view of the stage. So form what I heard - He was the most awesome singer. I hope to see him again at a better venue next time.

    Good show lousy fans.

    by Fatkat on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    We had so looked forward to seeing Jason in person. We arrived about 20 minutes early and got to our seats. The warm-up act performed and they were pretty good. After 20 minutes or so they got the stage ready and Jason and the 400 unit started. The floor crowd got to their feet and never sat down after that. Being seniors we were unable to see the show due to all the people standing. After 2 songs we got up and went out in the lobby area. I complained to the people who appeared to be in charge but they were no help. I was very disappointed and finally left.

    Too old, too short

    by Indyannie on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    I did not realize that the audience would stand for the entire concert. When I stood, the folks in front of me were so tall that I still could not see. We did enjoy seeing the opening act. Our local newspaper published many photos of the concert the next day online so I was able to see Mr. Isbell and his band. A lesson learned I suppose (maybe request handicapped seating in the future?) but at $466.00— costly.

    by Danno on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit delivered a rockin' performance by playing all the fan favorite songs in a fantastic venue. Ticket prices were reasonable. Sound in the theater was very good and seats are comfortable. Very happy Jason came to our small city again for his tour!

    So good.

    by JHC on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    The opening duo were so good. A husband and wife duo that were so calming with their beautiful acoustic music. Jason came out and hit the ground running with the 400 unit and they never stopped killing it the whole show. The best venue and show!

    Jason Isbell

    by Tina on 3/13/24Victory Theatre - Evansville

    Jason was wonderful but the music was louder than his voice. Tone down the music a bit so we can hear him better.
