The Detroit Cobras - Tied & True

Tied & True suggests The Detroit Cobras have become one of the best cover bands around, with no barriers showing between the mix of blues, rockabilly, country, garage rock, soul, r&b, and girl-group pop.

Raiding their parents' record collections it would seem, look out for versions of Irma Thomas, Bettye Lavette, the Cookies, the Flirtations, and the Equals, to name a few.

Switching genders for rocker Rachel Nagy to cover James Brown's If You Don't Think and Leadbelly's On a Monday makes little difference to the subject matter, but Little Willie John's Leave My Kitten Alone takes an entirely different slant with Nagy's nicotine-matured vocals switching the whole story around.
