Jason Isbell Is Alone Again, Preternaturally, on a Superb Solo Acoustic Tour: Concert Review
Jason Isbell's solo concerts behind his new acoustic album 'Foxes in the Snow' are right up there with his band tours for sheer musical electricity.
The most obvious point of reference for the “Foxes in the Snow” album has been Bruce Springsteen’s completely solo “Nebraska,” and it’s apt, as far as thinking about making a virtue out of starkness on the edge of town. “Good While It Lasted,” “Ride to Robert’s” and the title track of “Foxes in the Snow” all stood as rare and fresh examples of how Isbell can write a great crush song when he sets his mind to it. Regardless of how much of his personal goings-on you read into these freshly penned numbers, they are ebullient set-lifters that came just in time, deliberately or coincidently, to ensure that his first solo tour doesn’t get bogged down in breakups or missing digits.
