The Nashville Sound

The Nashville Sound is the sixth studio album by Jason Isbell, and the third credited to "Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit" (the first since Here We Rest in 2011). It was released on June 16, 2017. The album was produced by Dave Cobb, who had produced Isbell's previous two albums: Southeastern (2013) and Something More Than Free (2015). At the 60th Annual Grammy Awards, the album won the award for Best Americana Album, and the song "If We Were Vampires" won the award for Best American Roots Song.

The album earned Isbell his first CMA Award nomination, which was for Album of the Year at the 2017 ceremony. It won Best Americana Album at the 60th Annual Grammy Awards, and International Album of the Year at the 2018 UK Americana Awards. Additionally, "If We Were Vampires" won the Grammy for Best American Roots Song.

In the United States, the album debuted at number 4 on the Billboard 200 with 54,000 album-equivalent units, of which 51,000 were pure album sales. It is Isbell's highest placement on that chart, besting Something More Than Free, which peaked at number 6 in 2015. As of December 2018, the album had sold 152,500 copies in the U.S.

The single "If We Were Vampires" peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Triple A Airplay chart.

All tracks are written by Jason Isbell, except where noted.
