Background
editOn November 5, 2020, Isbell announced on Twitter that if Joe Biden won the state of Georgia in the 2020 United States presidential election, he would record a charity album featuring covers of songs by Georgia artists. After it was projected that Biden had won the state, along with the subsequent double Senate runoff election wins of Senate Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock, he reaffirmed on Twitter that he was being serious and that he would begin work on the album shortly.[1]
