Jason Isbell Announces 2023 Tour Dates

As they prepare for their big homecoming festival in Muscle Shoals, Ala., Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit is looking ahead to 2023. The band announced a new string of dates across Florida and a few in the Midwest in the new year. The run hits a few smaller markets. Check out the dates on the second slide below.

The run kicks off in Orlando, Fla. on January 19. Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit hit four cities in the Sunshine State, including Clearwater, Hollywood and Ft. Myers. They’ll swing through the lower part of their home state, playing a show at the Saenger Theatre in Mobile, Ala. on January 25. Then, they’re off to Indiana for three shows. There are stops in Evansville, Shipshewana and Nashville, Ind. They’ll squeeze Saginaw, Mich. in the middle of that run. They’ll head to Greensboro, N.C. on February 1. And they’ll wrap with a pair of Kentucky dates in Richmond and Ashland.

The news comes as the band just spent some time in the studio. There’s no word on a release date for a new single or for the full album, but it’s on the way. Perhaps they’ll start breaking out some of these new tracks at some of these new dates. West African duo Peter One will open all dates on the tour. The Florida shows will go on sale on October 7 at 10 a.m. local time. The remaining shows are all on sale this Friday, September 30 at 10 a.m. local time.

Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit Close 2022 With ShoalsFest and The Ryman

Before they reach that run, Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit have plenty left on their 2022 calendar. They’ll perform at Mempho Music Festival in Memphis, Tenn. on September 30. Then, they’ll head to their hometown of Muscle Shoals, Ala. for Shoalsfest. It’s a festival that Isbell curates himself. This year’s festival has a ton of local flavor. It features performances from The Wanda Band and Billy Allen & The Pollies. It also features a really unique in-the-round session that will feature Isbell swapping songs and stories with his T.M. Rogers High School friend and massive Nashville songwriter Chris Tompkins. Tompkins penned tracks like “Before He Cheats” for Carrie Underwood and “Cruise” for Florida-Georgia Line . He also co-wrote the new Blake Shelton track “No Body.” John Paul White of The Civil Wars and Gary Nichols also join the round.

Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit headline Sunday night, while Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats headline Saturday. Amanda Shires, John Moreland, Brittney Spencer and Christone “Kingfish” Ingram are also on the bill. So is legendary Southern rockers Drivin’ N’ Cryin.’

After that, they’ll look to their annual residency at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville later this month. Then, they’ll head to Europe for a run of dates in November. Check out all of the dates on Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit’s calendar and get ticket information at their website .

Former member of Drive-By-Truckers, singer-songwriter Jason Isbell (born February 1st, 1979) went solo in 2007, forging a sound that is instilled with a rootsy, southern swagger, whilst also offering country ballads full of melancholy and themes of redemption.

Growing up in rural Alabama, US, Isbell was surrounded by music from a young age as his large extended family were often playing instruments and making music together, honing his talents at high school and university through playing in various country cover bands. He joined Drive-By-Truckers at the age of 21, remaining with the band for six years, helping to write a number of their songs that went on to critical and commercial success.

By 2007, Isbell had left the group in order to forge a solo career, releasing his debut album, “Sirens of the Ditch,” a bluesy, punk tinged record that was very much rooted in the sound of the South. He then formed his backing band, the 400 Unit and began touring extensively, before returning to the studio in 2008. In the following year, his sophomore effort, “Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit” was released, which took another musical direction, favouring tender country ballads in the same vein as Muscle Schoals.

Isabel toured relentlessly for two years, playing an average of 200 shows annually. In 2010, he took a break from being on the road, returning home to Alabama, an area that had been hit hard by the economic recession. Whilst here, he began to write a new collection of songs that focused on the character so of the area, with simple honest songs that reflected the rural country and lifestyle. “Here We Rest” came out in 2011, an album that was warmly received by critics. A year later, Isbell followed “Here We Rest” with a live album, “Live From Alabama, which was recorded at the Workday Theater in Birmingham, US and at the Crossroads venue in Huntsville, Alabama, US. Isabel then returned to the studio for 2013’s “Southeastern,” an album that held a theme of redemption and sombre atonement, reflective of Isbell’s newfound sobriety. The album received massive critical acclaim, with Isbell sweeping up several awards at the 2014 Americana Music Awards, for ‘Album of the Year,’ ‘Artist of the Year’ and ’Song of the Year.’

Live reviews

Friday 22nd January. The Forum. John Moreland/Jason Isbell. It’s fair to say I have been looking forward to this gig for months. As soon as I heard John Moreland was supporting I knew we would be in for a treat. With one of the best albums of last year Moreland has not been across the pond before and Isbell, whose last album I didn’t think as strong as Southeastern, is always a superb live artist.

It’s a big turnout tonight with a nine strong gig going group. All have seen Isbell before and I manage to persuade some to join me for Moreland. The first surprise was the amount of people who were in for a support act. The venue is 80% full which is a testament to his talent. He ambles on stage and rattles though forty minutes of the finest Americana you will ever hear. He is warmly received and the disappointment is that it’s only nine songs, only three from High on Tulsa Heat and you are very much left wanting more. Here’s hoping it’s not too long before he’s back headlining and we can all give him a high as suggested by Isbell later on.

Expectations are always high when we see Isbell. We have seen a couple of times as a fresh faced young ‘un in Drive by Truckers sharing the Jack on stage as they do to five times as a solo artist. He has never disappointed whether it’s solo acoustic with his wife supporting on fiddle to full on rock with the 400 Unit.

It’s the usual mix of old and new solo work with a trip back to a few DBT classics. Standout songs from the new album fair well especially Speed Trap Town, 24 Frames and Ryan Adamseque ‘The Life you Chose’. The ‘Southeastern’ songs just ooze quality although I wasn’t convinced with the arrangement for Travelling Alone.

Highlights for me were the best version of ‘Decoration Day’ I have heard, absolutely stunning as was ‘Never gonna change’ and the guitar interplay between Isbell and Sadler Vaden, late of Drivin n Cryin and a fine solo artist, was superb. The latter song could have come straight from a Neil Young and Crazy Horse album and there is no higher praise.

What struck me this time was the development of Isbell’s voice. From the shy side man in Drive by Truckers he has matured into not only a great singer, songwriter and guitarist but the depth and strength of his voice has gone to another level.

Another top class show from Isbell who is a must see anytime he is over. Keep on rockin y’all.

Report as inappropriate

Monday 30th October. Jason Isbell and the 400 unit. The Roundhouse, London. So it’s I think the seventh time I have seen Isbell since he left the Drive by Truckers in a variety of combinations, solo acoustic, with the 400 unit and without, with Amanda and without but one thing for sure he is a consistent performer who has developed into one of the finest singer writers. His shows are always good and often great.

Support tonight is from the excellent Tift Merritt who I have not seen live for too long. Despite breaking a string on one of her three guitars she delivers a lesson in female country song writing. For those who don’t know her check out ‘Bramble Rose’ a classic and the new album ‘Stitch of the World’ is really good too.

Next up Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, his long standing backing band. They are one of the best bands around and complement Isbell perfectly. Special mention to Sadler Vaden on guitar and backing vocals. He has an understated style but his slide guitar is amazing. He has also produced a couple of great solo records himself. (Hey Jason why not give him the support slot on the next tour).

Over here touring the new excellent album ‘The Nashville Sound’ which is a return to form over in my opinion the patchy ‘Something more than free’. We are treated to most of the album which has some of his best work to date including ‘White man’s world’ and ‘If we were Vampires’ which is not only one of the best songs he has ever written but certainly my favourite song of the year by any artist. I defy anyone who is in a relationship to listen to this without a tear in your eye. Truly moving stuff.

He hop skips and jumps through his song writing back catalogue which only highlights his maturity as a songwriter not afraid to take on contemporary issues. Sound wise I am never truly convinced with the Roundhouse as venue and have yet to find the sweet spot to watch and listen in this iconic venue. But this did not detract from the performance.

Highlights for me included the hard rockin ‘Never gonna change’ and the mellow groove of ‘Travelling Alone’ to the final encore of Tom Petty’s ‘American Girl’

Till the next time, keep on rockin y’all

We were halfway through the first Jason Isbell performance of the weekend when his latest single found its way into the setlist. The song (which uses frames per second as a metaphor for how fast life can change) is much different than what came before, but that’s because Jason Isbell is a much different man than he was before. That line about making friends and then forgetting their names has always reminded me of a photo I took of him not long after he parted ways with Drive-By Truckers. The picture was taken at Larimer Lounge sometime in 2009. The Isbell portrayed in that image would be unrecognizable to those who discovered him post-Southeastern. He is six years younger, but he looks ten years older and at least thirty pounds heavier. He wore a smile on his face as he shared a shot and a beer with us, but there was a blankness in his bloodshot eyes as they threatened to be swallowed by the pillow-sized bags that hung below them. He wore a large hoop in one ear and his curly hair stuck to his sweaty forehead long after he left the stage. He looked like shit. Part of me wants to delete the photo, because I know I wouldn’t want it out there if it were me, but I keep it as a reminder that things really can change in 24 frames. And sometimes those changes are for the better. Isbell forgot our names before we even walked away that night, and he still had a few more destructive years in front of him, but then he made some decisions that put him on a different path…one that led him to perform “24 Frames” from the famous stage at the Ryman Auditorium on the first of a four-night run of extremely sold-out hometown shows. - See more at: http://ilistensoyoudonthaveto.com/2015/11/01/jason-isbell-ryman-residency-2015/#sthash.Lp4nrylb.dpuf

Adding a dark side to country music, Jason Isbell has found a fanbase prepared to turn up in force to his show in order to hear his dose of melancholic country. Although he has been working the live circuit since the early 2000s, his debut solo album came in 2007 and since then each release has seen his cult appeal and reputation grow dramatically.

Through his time with the Drive by Truckers and his solo promotion, Chris has had a lot of experience on the stage so has a truly natural demeanour when it comes to chatting with his audience. They respond well and the cheers seem to grow in volume every time Isbell acknowledges or jokes with them. There is a lot of balladic material so it is not the natural stomping, upbeat country show however this variation goes down really well and it is clear the fanbase are dedicated as they attempt to sing back the choruses to nearly every track aired this evening.

I love Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit. I have been a long time Drive by Truckers fan too and first saw Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass in San Francisco in 2011. This show that day was fantastic. I was floored that Jason was the "undercard" to the Hard Working Americans but great, we got to hear him that much sooner. He played a great mix of songs from his Southeastern album and blended in Goddamned Lonely Love and Decoration Day. All very good. My one complaint was the way the sound was mixed. It was way too loud and we were in the balcony and his vocals were so loud that they were distorting. I know his songs very well but can't imagine how a new listener could have understood his fantastic lyrics. His stories are too good to be obscured by lousy mixing. Sorry. Jason is back in Colorado on September 20th at Beaver Creek. I'll be there am truly hoping this gets fixed.

This is a must see concert for fans of rock or country music. Jason Isbell delighted fans by performing his new album "Something More Than Free" in its entirety, alongside his lovely and talented wife Amanda Shires, and his band the 400 Unit. He followed this up with many hits from his earlier solo albums and a couple of songs from his time with Drive By Truckers. In particular, "Cover Me Up", "Children of Children", "Danko/Manuel" and "Codeine" brought the crowd to their feet.

This was my first time at the Ryman Auditorium, and I was very impressed. It is a very intimate and historic venue, one which complemented Isbell's repertoire and between-song chats perfectly.

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit started the show with the song Anxiety. Not my favorite song so I was glad he got it over with early. It just got better from there. This was my fourth time seeing him and it doesn’t get old. He did New arrangements of some songs and a song I had never heard. In all he did 6 songs I had never seen live before. He was funny and truly seemed happy to be on that stage.

I will go out on a limb saying the 400 Unit is the best touring band there is right now. Sadler is amazing and the duels him an Jason have on stage are incredible. I could go on and on but I will end saying I smiled from ear to ear when he said next year might be two nights!

Great show. Fabulous set list. Love the new record. I would have liked to hear Amanda's violin and vocals a little louder. What I don't get is when artists turn the bright lights on the audience. Is that to see us better? Stop it. It's too bright, or give us sunglasses. Sub-woofers were a little loud for The Beacon, especially for The Mountain Goats. I was with a bass player so I think I apeak with some authority. Just sayin. Sounds like a lot of complaints but we really loved the show. 'Tied to the Whipping Post' was flawless! Fabulous ending to a very engaging show. How often does everyone stand for an entire concert anymore? Wish I was going back again tonight!

Incredible singer, musician, and song writer! Great show and lovely venue. I do have to say however, it's the first concert I have ever been to where we were told we couldn't stand up??? We had end seats on the sixth row from the stage. No one even directly behind us and we were standing up to the music. Security guard came over and told us we had to sit down or move over to the side because we may be blocking someone's view. Most ridiculous thing I've ever heard at a music concert. But Jason was amazing, everything I had been told about him was completely accurate! He's a legend in the making.

I bought my tickets 4 months ago and after seeing him at the electric ballroom in Camden Town last year i couldnt wait.This man is so talented, he writes great songs and his band the 400 unit are so tight.

switching from electric to acoustic and back again jason shows how good a guitarist he is,

everything about this band is melodic a big removal from his Drive By Truckers days although to keep us all happy he played a couple from his song writing days with them as well. This man is not to be missed and i cant wait for his next tour here

A Jason Isbell record always lands like a decoder ring in the ears and hearts of his audience, a soundtrack to his world and magically to theirs, too. Weathervanes carries the same revelatory power. This is a storyteller at the peak of his craft, observing his fellow wanderers, looking inside and trying to understand, reducing a universe to four minutes. He shrinks life small enough to name the fear and then strip it away, helping his listeners make sense of how two plus two stops equaling four once you reach a certain age -- and carry a certain amount of scars.

“There is something about boundaries on this record,” Isbell says. “As you mature, you still attempt to keep the ability to love somebody fully and completely while you’re growing into an adult and learning how to love yourself.”

Weathervanes is a collection of grown-up songs: Songs about adult love, about change, about the danger of nostalgia and the interrogation of myths, about cruelty and regret and redemption. Life and death songs played for and by grown ass people. Some will make you cry alone in your car and others will make you sing along with thousands of strangers in a big summer pavilion, united in the great miracle of being alive. The record features the rolling thunder of Isbell’s fearsome 400 Unit, who’ve earned a place in the rock ‘n’ roll cosmos alongside the greatest backing ensembles, as powerful and essential to the storytelling as The E Street Band or the Wailers.

They make a big noise, as Isbell puts it, and he feels so comfortable letting them be a main prism through which much of the world hears his art. He can be private but with them behind him he transforms, and there is a version of himself that can only exist in their presence. When he plays a solo show, he is in charge of the entire complicated juggle. On stage with the 400 Unit, he can be a guitar hero when he wants, and a conductor when he wants, and a smiling fan of the majesty of his bandmates when he wants to hang back and listen to the sound.

The roots of this record go back into the isolation of the pandemic and to Isbell’s recent time on the set as an actor on Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon. There were guitars in his trailer and in his rented house and a lot of time to sit and think. The melancholy yet soaring track “King of Oklahoma” was written there. Isbell also watched the great director work, saw the relationship between a clear vision and its execution, and perhaps most important, saw how even someone as decorated as Scorsese sought out and used his co-workers’ opinions.

“It definitely helped when I got into the studio,” Isbell says. “I had this reinvigorated sense of collaboration. You can have an idea and you can execute it and not compromise -- and still listen to the other people in the room."

CONCERT REVIEW: Jason Isbell at the Salt Shed

• Post Date Sun Mar 31 2024

By: Alex Gershman

Jason Isbell, once referred to by John Mayer as “the best lyric writer of my generation,” was back by popular demand, performing at Chicago's Salt Shed for the second time in two years. I was lucky enough to see him on March 1, his second night of back-to-back shows there. If you know me at all, you know Jason Isbell is my favorite artist, so this review might be slightly biased, but I thought the show was absolutely incredible. 

For starters, the Salt Shed is a fantastic place to see a show. Originally owned by Morton Salt, the space was morphed into a concert venue after the business' relocation. However, being a Chicago landmark, the massive Morton Salt sign is still visible on the outside. During the summer they have a great outdoor venue, though this was indoors of course, given the cold weather. The venue was still incredible, the best part being the light show, headed by lasers that changed colors and shapes depending on the song.

Isbell, widely considered an americana artist, can best be described as a rock n' roll performer with his band, The 400 Unit. Not only is he one of the best songwriters alive, he is also a ridiculously good guitarist – a highly rare combination – which becomes apparent as he trades solos with Sadler Vaden, one of the best guitarists alive. Isbell mixes fast and loud songs like “It Gets Easier,” about his decade of sobriety, with slower, softer music, such as “Strawberry Woman,” a song about nostalgia in a relationship, accompanied by a slow and smooth accordion. 

The show's setlist was a mix of widely recognized hits – “Cover Me Up” – as well as songs played far less often, like “Different Days.” His songwriting excellence was on full display with lines like “I don't think on why I'm here or where it hurts, I'm just lucky to have the work” and “home was a dream, one that I'd never seen till you came along.” The concert was interrupted twice for medical emergencies, uncommon at Isbell shows (at least the ones I've been to), but he handled it well, keeping the audience calm and letting the medics sort things out. He also cracked several jokes throughout the performance, which is one of my favorite aspects of seeing him live. Overall, the experience was highly enjoyable and I would recommend an Isbell show to lovers of any genre of music. You won't regret it.

Morgan Wallen controversy

While Wallen is a bona fide star, his ascent to the top hasn’t come without a few hiccups.

In fact, his Wikipedia has a whole section labeled  “Controversies.”

Just a few of his most notable scandals include an arrest for public intoxication and disorderly conduct (May 2020), partying maskless in a bar at the height of the pandemic (October 2020) and using racial slurs on camera (February 2021).

Following his racist incident, Wallen donated $300,000 to the Black Music Action Coalition. He was also banned from a number of award shows.

EXCLUSIVE: Mountain Winery announces epic concert lineup for 2024

Mountain Winery is set to unveil a mammoth concert lineup for it’s 2024 concert season.

The season — the picturesque Saratoga venue’s 66th overall — will consist of more than 70 concerts, touching upon everything from country, comedy and classic rock to pop, funk and oldies.

Big names on the bill include Rod Stewart, Natalie Merchant, Parliament-Funkadelic, Daryl Hall, Elvis Costello, Chelsea Handler and Harry Connick, Jr.

The venue is announcing the lineup today (March 28) at 8 a.m. The presale for Loyalty Club members begins at 10 a.m. April 2, with the general public on sale following at 10 a.m. April 5. Visit mountainwinery.com

The full lineup is listed below, but let’s first take a look at the 10 shows I’m be most excited to see. I’ll run through the list chronologically.

1. Dwight Yoakam (May 17) — I had the chance to see the country troubadour last year, as part of Blue Note Napa’s Summer Session at the Meritage Resort, and he sounded fantastic. His songbook includes some of the genre’s finest tunes of the last 40 years, including “Guitars, Cadillacs” and “A Thousand Miles from Nowhere.”

2. Tanya Tucker (May 21) — Can someone explain to me why it took until 2023 for this legendary performer to get inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame? Seems like “Delta Dawn” alone should’ve secured her passage into the hall at least a decade earlier.

3. Megan Moroney (July 19) — Yes, I’m well aware that my list opens with three straight country music singers. The first two are flat-out icons, while Moroney is one of the most talented and promising new talents to be found in any genre. Her self-assured debut, “Lucky,” was my pick for the best album of 2023. And it’s also the main reason why this show ranks as the one I most want to see at the Mountain Winery in 2024.

4. Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit (July 20) — Who doesn’t like Jason Isbell? Judging by the reviews that this Americana artist has gotten from so many of his past albums — which includes last year’s “Weathervanes” — the answer is pretty much nobody.

5. The Australian Pink Floyd Show (Aug. 9) — It’s rare that a tribute act would make one of my top 10 lists, but I’m just so in the mood to hear those epic David Gilmour guitar parts played live. And Mr. Gilmour hasn’t toured the Bay Area since 2006. Sigh.

6. Gary Clark Jr (Aug. 18) — Speaking of cool guitar work, this Austin blues-rocker will surely light up the frets when he visits Saratoga. The four-time Grammy winner is touring in support of his recently released fourth studio album, “JPEG Raw.”

7. Lost 80’s Live (Aug. 31) — Just a really fun lineup, with A Flock of Seagulls, Wang Chung, The English Beat, Missing Persons, The Vapors, The Escape Club, Stacey Q, Animotion, Musical Youth and Dramarama. The best part is the sets tend to be short, so expect the hits and not much else.

8. Air Supply (Sept. 6) — I definitely don’t have to sell this one to the band’s incredibly devoted fans — lovingly dubbed “Airheads” — who will turn out in mass to see Air Supply perform such classic cuts as “Lost in Love,” “All Out of Love,” “The One That You Love” and, best of all, “Making Love Out of Nothing at All.”

9. Three Dog Night & Little River Band (Sept. 7) — The latter has so many awesome songs, but I’d buy a ticket just to hear these first-tier Yacht Rockers play “Cool Change” alone. Toss in Three Dog Night — and the chance to scream along to “Joy to the World” — and this one definitely looks like a winner.

10. Clint Black (Oct. 17) — I opened with country and I’m closing it, especially since Black is touring in celebration of the 35th anniversary of arguably his finest album — the 1989 multi-platinum debut “Killin’ Time.”

Ohio University announces the return of its highly anticipated Music Industry Summit. The 6th annual event is scheduled for April 9-10, 2024.

Isbell will close the conference with a special concert at Templeton-Blackburn Memorial Auditorium on Wednesday, April 10.

In addition to the keynote artists, in-depth interviews and panel discussions will be hosted over the two days covering a diverse range of artistic and business topics in the music industry. The conversations will be hosted by a roster of esteemed industry professionals, including:

• Craig Finn, singer/songwriter and frontman for The Hold Steady

"Our team is excited to present the 6th year of the Music Industry Summit. We’ll again be welcoming leading artists and industry experts to campus for two days of events focused on education, networking, and entertainment," said Josh Antonuccio, director of the Music Industry Summit and director of Ohio University’s School of Media Arts and Studies. "The conference has become an epicenter for the next generation of creative professionals to engage with the industries they are passionate about. Not only are we offering our most diverse range of programming options to-date, we are also anticipating our highest attendance.”

The Summit will also offer small group programming including breakout sessions, workshops, and mentoring roundtables which will provide attendees with a more intimate glimpse into the inner workings of various areas of the music industry. Breakout sessions and workshops will include sessions by Kevin Rutherford of Billboard on preparing music for charts, Chillwave artist Brothertiger in a music technology masterclass sponsored by Roland, a session on music supervision for films and television by Rachael LaCava, presented by the Guild of Music Supervisors, an AI Music Production workshop presented by Kevin Breuner of BandLab Technologies, Andrew Morgan of Wasserman Music discussing how artists work with booking agents, and a session on music royalties with Cameryn Conner of the Mechanical Licensing Collective.

“We have curated a lineup of business leaders and artists at the forefront of innovation and creativity in the music industry," said Paul Benedict, director of Ohio University’s Center for Entrepreneurship. "We’re offering the world’s best music industry networking and learning opportunities that will always be free to students.”

Mentoring roundtables, which were added to the offerings in 2023 and were a highlight for attendees, will return. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to participate in these small group conversations, fostering intimate and meaningful conversations with industry experts. Nearly 40 artists and professionals will host these conversations, including notable alumni Faith Galloway of Bauer Entertainment Marketing, Universal Music Publishing Group artist Jaron Takach, Sarah Kloboves of Chartmetric, Brian Muehlenkamp of Ticketmaster, and other industry professionals such as New York Times journalist Marcus J. Moore, BandLab Technologies’ Head of Communications and Creator Insights/ Recording Academy Chicago Governor Dani Deahl, and immersive experience expert David De Cristofaro who recently worked with U2 on their residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas.

Two evening events will be held at Stuart’s Opera House in nearby Nelsonville, OH. In partnership with OHIO Live and the Music Industry Summit, Stuart’s will host performances by indie rock veterans Bully and Craig Finn on Monday, April 8, at the historic venue. A portion of the proceeds from ticket sales will benefit Stuart’s Opera House’s arts education programs.  Tickets are on sale now starting at $25.

Stuart’s Opera House will also host the Opening Night Party, presented by sponsor 10K Humans, on Tuesday, April 9. This party will feature a DJ set by J Rawls. Summit registrants and the general public are invited to enjoy this free networking opportunity and entertainment.  A separate registration is required to attend.

At the conclusion of the day programming on Wednesday, April 10, StewMac, an Athens-based company specializing in the production of luthier tools, guitar parts, and supplies, will open the doors to their historical building for a Happy Hour and Jam Session. This is also a free event but requires a  separate registration .

Following the Happy Hour, Isbell will perform the Closing Night Concert at Templeton-Blackburn Memorial Auditorium with opening act Peter One. This show is sold out.  "We couldn't be more excited to bring an artist of Jason Isbell's extraordinary level of talent to Athens,” said Drew Holzapfel, executive director of OHIO Performing Arts and Concert Series. “His presence elevates the caliber of our event, and we look forward to the insights and inspiration that he will share about his storied career during his keynote, followed by enjoying his sure-to-be captivating sold out performance.”

The official after party will be held at The Union Bar following the concert. Partners Midnight Music and Blackout Booking have scheduled five regional artists to perform at the party: Loljack, Vonoski, Weongo, Cano & J Tolb, and Auburn Hill. Doors open at 9 p.m. and an $8 cover will be required for entry.

The OHIO Music Industry Summit has become the largest music industry conference in the Midwest and was named one of the “7 Essential Music Conferences” by Soundfly, along with conferences, such as South by Southwest and Canadian Music Week.
