The Story Behind Zac Brown Band’s “Dress Blues” [VIDEO]
If you went out right away to get 'Jekyll + Hyde," the new Zac Brown Band CD when it came out a few weeks ago, you may have already listened to it quite a few times. There's a song on there that stands out in my mind called "Dress Blues" that you may have wondered about.
It's a song about a soldier who goes off to the war and unfortunately doesn't make it home alive. It's one of the few that made it to a Zac Brown Band CD that he didn't write
The song was written by a guy named Jason Isbell about a guy that he went to school with. This is Jason doing the song live.
