Jason Isbell & Amanda Shires taped an ACL TV episode (pics)

Jason Isbell released his excellent new album The Nashville Sound, his first album with backing band The 400 Unit since 2011, and he’s been touring in support of it all year. Last night (8/21), Jason did an Austin City Limits taping at Austin’s Moody Theater, which will air on PBS during ACL‘s 43rd season this fall. Like other shows on Isbell’s tour, this one was opened by his wife and 400 Unit member Amanda Shires (who released her latest album My Piece of Land last year). It was actually two separate episodes being taped, one for Jason and one for Amanda. Pictures are in the gallery above.
