The North Alabama native possesses an incredible penchant for identifying and articulating some of the deepest, yet simplest, human emotions, and turning them into beautiful poetry through song. Isbell sings of the everyday human condition with thoughtful, heartfelt, and sometimes brutal honesty. After releasing multiple critically-acclaimed albums, appearing in an Academy Award-nominated film, Killers of the Flower Moon, and touring the world with his band, the 400 Unit, Isbell began 2025 with a change of pace. A solo record. Simply Isbell and his voice and an acoustic guitar, an all-mahogany 1940 Martin 0-17. Recorded at Electric Lady Studios in NYC, Foxes in the Snow further demonstrates his pure talent as a songwriter and musician. As Stereogum so aptly put it, “the barebones intimacy recenters the artist behind the persona and serves as a reminder that this guy can write a damn song.” Warning About 3rd Party Ticket Resellers AT&T Performing Arts Center Ticketing Services is the only authorized outlet for individual tickets for shows listed on this website.

Performing
Michael Jason Isbell is an American singer-songwriter. He is known for his solo career, his work with the band The 400 Unit, and being a member of Drive-By Truckers for six years, from 2001 to 2007. Isbell has won four Grammy Awards. <br><br> Outside of music, Isbell has appeared in roles in the television series Squidbillies and Billions, as well as the films Deadwood: The Movie and Killers of the Flower Moon. <br><br> His most recent album with his band, The 400 Unit, Weathervanes, was released in June 2023. <br><br> When Isbell was a teenager, many musicians took him under their wing. He got to know session bassist David Hood, father of Drive-By Truckers co-founder Patterson Hood because David Hood was in the Florence, Alabama, area and played around town on Friday and Saturday nights in local restaurants and bars. By this time, Patterson Hood and his future Drive-By Truckers co-founder, Mike Cooley, were older and had moved out of town. Isbell would go watch David Hood and others perform. It took a while, but once he finally got up the nerve to tell them he played, they would have him sit in with them, which resulted in friendship and mentorship. <br><br> Isbell submitted demos and eventually got a publishing deal with FAME Studios of Muscle Shoals, Alabama when he was 21. He worked with FAME for 15 years, through his solo album Southeastern. Isbell also recorded pieces of his solo albums at FAME Studios, as well as the Drive-By Truckers' The Dirty South. <br><br> Isbell was born in Green Hill, Alabama, two miles (3 km) from the Alabama/Tennessee state line. He is the son of interior designer Angela Hill Barnett and house painter Mike Isbell. Isbell's mother was only 17 years old (and his father was 19 years old) when he was born and she is the subject of the song "Children of Children." Isbell's parents divorced, and he has two much younger half-siblings. <br><br> Isbell grew up in North Alabama. His grandparents lived on a farm down the road next to the school that Isbell attended; they looked after him while his parents were at work. His grandfather and uncle taught him to play various instruments, including the mandolin, when he was six years old, as it was easier for him to grip as a small child. They enjoyed gospel music, bluegrass music, and the Grand Ole Opry. In high school, he played the trumpet and French horn. Isbell's family would get together and play music every week, sometimes twice a week. Isbell's paternal grandfather, who came from a musical family, was a Pentecostal preacher and played guitar in church. Isbell spent his childhood attending both the Pentecostal church and the stricter Church of Christ, which permitted only singing without musical instruments. <br><br> Isbell started playing in a garage band and a country cover band when he was 14 or 15 years old with his friend, songwriter Chris Tompkins. They played at the Grand Ole Opry when Isbell was 16. <br><br> Isbell attended the University of Memphis, studying English and creative writing. He dropped out, being short on credit, to go on tour. In September 2023, after discussions with the University of Memphis about his career experience, he was awarded his bachelor's degree in English.
