News about Amanda Shires

After nearly 11 years of marriage, Jason Isbell and his partner Amanda Shires stunned the country music world when they announced they were divorcing. This week, the King of Oklahoma singer, 45, filed the divorce petition in Tennessee and listed the date of separation as December 3. Mercy, eight, and the couple have lived in Nashville on and off for a decade before marrying in February 2013. There are irreconcilable differences as the reason for their marriage's break. With Shires' backing for Isbell's The 400 Unit, the two artists support each other's bands, although she plays guitar for her band The Highway Women.
