Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit

Tuesday, August 01, 2023 @ 8:00pm



State Theatre New Jersey
15 Livingston Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ 08901

with Special Guest S.G. Goodman

Since the release of 2013’s Southeastern, Jason Isbell has established himself as one of the most respected and celebrated songwriters of his generation. He returns to the State Theatre with the 400 Unit for an evening of Grammy®-winning hits and the blended sounds of Americana and Alabama roots. Featuring special guest, singer/songwriter S.G. Goodman.

Jason Isbell, a 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. After Southeastern, his next two albums, Something More Than Free (2015) and The Nashville Sound (2017), won Grammy® Awards for Best Americana Album and Best American Roots Song (“24 Frames"). Isbell's song "Maybe It's Time" was featured in the 2019 reboot of A Star Is Born.

His most recent full-length album, Reunions (2020), is a critically-acclaimed collection of 10 new songs that showcases an artist at the height of his powers and a band fully charged with creativity and confidence. In October 2021, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit released a special new covers album, Georgia Blue. Created to celebrate Georgia’s role in the 2020 election, the record consists of new versions of 13 songs with ties to the state, including tracks originally recorded by Georgia natives R.E.M., Drivn’ N’ Cryin’, James Brown, Cat Power, Precious Bryant, Otis Redding, The Black Crowes, Indigo Girls, Now It’s Overhead, Gladys Knight & The Pips, The Allman Brothers Band, and Vic Chesnutt. All proceeds benefit three non-profit organizations: Black Voters Matter, Fair Fight, and Georgia STAND-UP.

Co-presented with The Bowery Presents
