Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit - "Hope The High Road"

Isbell has called the band back into the room and turned up the amps for his upcoming LP, The Nashville Sound. After this previous pair of (amazing) solo records, this one is being billed as more of a rock album, which you'll get from this first single. It's still got it's roots, but with a bit more teeth. And when you've got a line like, "Last year was a son of a bitch for everyone we know," it's not hard to figure out what's on Jason's mind.
