Jason Isbell joins host Raina Douris

Honesty is important to Jason Isbell – in his songwriting, his relationships, and in voicing what he believes. He never shies away from speaking his mind on political issues, even when it means facing criticism from some of his fans, which Jason discusses with host Rains Douris today. We’ll also hear a live performance of new music from his album, Reunions, including a song Jason wrote for his wife, fiddle player Amanda Shires.
