Making his debut on the show is Nashville singer songwriter and guitarist Jason Isbell. A former member of alt-country band Drive By Truckers, who has been having great success since going solo in 2007 and he will be performing a couple of tracks from his recent fifth album ‘Something More Than Free', which not only went Top 20 in the UK, but saw mainstream success in the US going Top five as well as winning two Grammy awards.

Completing the line-up are Boston's harmony-driven and hard-gigging Lake Street Dive who will be making their UK TV debut. Lead by vocalist Rachael Price, their new album Side Pony, develops their swing-jazz take on the 60s of Motown and The Beatles.
