Reel To Reel: Jason Isbell: Running With Our Eyes Closed

The GRAMMY Museum is thrilled to host a special screening of HBO’s upcoming documentary Jason Isbell: Running With Our Eyes Closed. The film is the next installment of Music Box on HBO, which explores essential moments in music. After the screening, there will be a conversation with Jason Isbell and Director Sam Jones as they discuss the making of the film, their creative process, and more, followed by an intimate performance with Jason Isbell and Amanda Shires.

ABOUT JASON ISBELL

Jason Isbell has established himself as one of the most respected and celebrated songwriters of his generation. The North Alabama native possesses an incredible penchant for identifying and articulating some of the deepest, yet simplest, human emotions, and turning them into beautiful poetry through song. Isbell sings of the everyday human condition with thoughtful, heartfelt, and sometimes brutal honesty. Isbell 

broke through in 2013 with the release of Southeastern. His next two albums, Something More Than Free (2015) and The Nashville Sound (2017), won Grammy Awards for Best Americana Album & Best American Roots Song. Reunions (2020), is a critically-acclaimed collection of ten new songs that showcases an artist at the height of his powers and a band fully charged with creativity and confidence. His most recent release, Georgia Blue (2021), is a collection of Georgia-related cover songs and proceeds from this album benefit voter’s rights organizations in Georgia. In April of 2021, it was announced that Isbell would appear in the upcoming Martin Scorsese film, Killers of the Flower Moon.
