Isbell seeks "Something More Than Free"

The 11 songs are Isbell's most sonically diverse album to date, according to a press release. The opening track, "If It Takes A Lifetime" exudes a classic country tone, while "24 Frames" enjoys a Laurel Canyon vibe. "Flagship" is characterized as a folk ballad, while "Palmetto Rose" covers bluesy Southern rock.

The disc is the follow up to Isbell's 2013 breakthrough album "Southeastern," which received much press support and went on to sell more than 150,000 copies. Isbell won Artist of the Year, Song of the Year ("Cover Me Up") and Album of the Year at the 2014 Americana Music Awards. Isbell and his wife Amanda Shires will play on The Late Show with David Letterman on April 24.

"Something More Than "was recorded at the Sound Emporium in Nashville and produced by Dave Cobb, who also produced "Southeastern."
