"On his newest, Something More Than Free, the sun's finally around for good. After decades of grimly realist depictions of Southern life, it's hard to imagine that Isbell could have gone saccharine, and he hasn't. But for the first time, Isbell's actually looking up, and when relating his ever-literate tales of down-on-their-luck characters, there's a welcoming hopefulness - a sly grin and a knowledge that, worry not, it does get better. Such an optimistic streak shines through from the opening moments of the first cut, 'If It Takes a Lifetime.'" — Spin, July 2015
Something More Than Free is the follow-up to Jason Isbell's 2013 celebrated breakthrough album Southeastern, which received overwhelming support from the press and went on to sell more than 150,000 copies. Isbell was the subject of stories in outlets ranging from The New York Times Magazine and Wall Street Journal to NPR's "All Things Considered" and "Fresh Air" with Terry Gross.
Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit made multiple television appearances, including "The Late Show with David Letterman," "Conan" and "Austin City Limits." Isbell won Artist of the Year, Song of the Year ("Cover Me Up") and Album of the Year at the 2014 Americana Music Awards. At David Letterman's personal request, Jason and his wife, Amanda Shires performed on one of the last episodes of "The Late Show" in April 2015.
