Jason Isbell

(born February 1, 1979) After spending six years with Southern rock outfit Drive-By Truckers, singer/guitarist Jason Isbell left the group in 2007 to pursue a solo career. Isbell had already honed his songwriting skills during his tenure with the Truckers, and he funneled those talents into Sirens of the Ditch, a bluesy, punk-infused lesson in guitar tones and Southern swagger that marked his solo debut in summer 2007. Isbell released his latest album, Something More Than Free, in July 2015. He was married to Shonna Tucker and is now married to Amanda Shires.
