Isbell's new album, Reunions, was recorded with the 400 Unit and produced by Dave Cobb.
The major question Isbell said he was pondering during its creation was what happens after an artist has achieved his dreams.
"Success is a very nice problem to have, but I think 'how do I get through it and not lose what made me good in the first place?'" Isbell said in a written statement. "A lot of these songs and the overall concept of this album is how do I progress as an artist and a human being and still keep that same hunger that I had when I wasn't quite so far along in either respect."
He said his solution was to look back in time with his hard-gained knowledge. The result was a collection of 10 new songs delving into relationships with lovers, friends, children, parents and one's self.
