Jason Isbell joins host Raina Douris
Weathervanes is the name of the new album from Jason Isbell & the 400 Unit – a record of powerful songs about everyday people. On the World Cafe, Jason Isbell talks about what draws him to write about people that others may judge and how, the more difficult the topic, the more he personalizes the song. Plus, live recordings of the new music.
