JASON ISBELL AND THE 400 UNIT ANNOUNCE 2nd LEG OF 2009 TOUR SUPPORTING NEW ALBUM

“As happens in the Muscle Shoals tradition, The 400 Unit features keys, in this case in the form of Derry deBorga (ex-Son Volt), and that steamy Southern vibe really makes The 400 Unit shine. The sultry organ and soulful vocals set Isbell and band apart from the current gang of reverb-obsessed Americana folkers.” – The Tripwire

Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit announce the second leg of their tour in support of their new self-titled album. The new dates (presented by Paste Magazine) will begin after SXSW in Memphis, TN, and include a West Coast run. The tour concludes in Oxford, MS in late April.
