Good news for fans of country-tinged, Southern-fried Muscle Shoals rock 'n' soul: Former Drive-By Trucker Jason Isbell will be playing an in-store at Grimey's today at 6 p.m. with his new crew, the 400 Unit. The appearance is in support of their eponymous album, which hits shelves tomorrow. Plus, one of the 400 Unit dudes looks like Commander from The Protomen. So that's sweet.

Isbell's people sent over an mp3 to share with everyone. Song's called "Seven-Mile Island." Give it a peep. Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit will be hitting Mercy Lounge with Deer Tick on March 14. Tickets are $10. See a full list of Isbell's dates after the jump.
