Flat Sound
The Sound Amphitheater - Gautier
We enjoyed the concert. Second event at the Sound and was great. We really enjoyed the North MS Allstars as they are our all time favs. The Sound has room for improvements, but we look forward to visiting the venue again in the future.

Loved the North Mississippi Allstars!
The Sound Amphitheater - Gautier
The Venue was good. I believe the stage should have been built higher as there is no upward slope or terracing where the audience sits. So if you bought good seats, and most people stand, you must stand too. I'll likely never buy premium seat here again. And will sit in the grass. Loved the North Mississippi Allstars, but will not likely see Jason Isbell again. I'm spoiled by Jazz and Bluegrass, and didn't care for the amount of distortion Jason and his band employed. I prefer my sounds quite a bit cleaner. I will see the North Mississippi Allstars again:)

Fantastic Isbell show & Sound Ampitheater
The Sound Amphitheater - Gautier
North Mississippi Allstars perfect to open for Isbell, who’s at the top of his game. Brand new venue was on point- acoustics, amenities, vibe and even great weather. Song selection and energy was great - seems a good time was had by all!

Awesome
The Sound Amphitheater - Gautier
Great performance! Didn’t even know who this group was, will definitely be downloading some of his music now. Great energy and nice sound. Knats were annoying this night. Be good if you can get city to spray prior to event.

Jason
Tabernacle - 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!
Tabernacle - 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!

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.
