There are a lot of bad actors purporting to bring the spirit of the South to Americana. While the 37-year-old has written for the likes of Miranda Lambert and Little Big Town, Brent Cobb is not one of them.
On a 2022 album, And Now, Let’s Turn To Page…, Cobb—cousin to famed producer Dave Cobb—pays homage to Southern gospel and shows off his influences on an original called “When It’s My Time.”
Last year on Southern Star, his honeyed vocal and songwriting wracked up critical praise from tastemaking publications like No Depression and Rolling Stone which lauded Cobb’s position among modern music’s best.
Tickets to see Brent Cobb play Tampa Orpheum on Thursday, March 28 are still available and start at $20.
