If you are a
Jason Isbell fan, then you are definitely familiar with his solo records, as well as his music with his band The 400 Unit. However, you might be less familiar with the music of the
Drive-By Truckers, the band that Jason began his career with.
The Athens, Georgia, based band began as a southern rock and alt-country outfit, but have become a genre-bending staple not only in the South, but across the country. The band’s origins date back to when two northern Alabama natives, Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley, met as roommates at the University of North Alabama, but the Drive-By Truckers didn’t actually form until 1996 in Athens. Since then, DBT has released over a dozen albums and four live albums.
