DWIGHT YOAKAM JASON ISBELL COME TO PNC PAVILION - Cincinnati Event

WHAT: Few entertainers have attained the iconic status of DWIGHT YOAKAM. His name immediately conjures up compelling, provocative images: A pale cowboy hat with the brim pulled low; poured-on blue jeans; intricate, catchy melodies paired with poignant, brilliant lyrics that mesmerize with their indelible imprint. Like the icons he so admires - Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Buck Owens - DWIGHT YOAKAM is one of a kind. He has taken his influences and filtered them into his own potent blend of country and rock that honors his musical predecessors and yet creates something beautifully new.

Born in Greenhill, Alabama, JASON ISBELL is undeniably inspired by the soul-tinged rock, country, and blues produced in neighboring Muscle Shoals. As a lyricist, he is willing to tell the difficult stories, whether raw, introspective, messy, or poetic. As an artist, he reveals his own vulnerabilities - his successes and failures - that listeners might find kinship, or perspective. JASON ISBELL'S past albums include Sirens of the Ditch, Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Here We Rest, and Live from Alabama. His most recent release, Southeastern, garnered significant critical acclaim. In 2014, Isbell earned three Americana Music Awards, including Artist of the Year, Song of the Year (for "Cover Me Up"), and Album of the Year, for Southeastern.
