Southern Star - Brent Cobb

Brent Cobb has already been a major part of instilling the independent country music insurgency with a healthy shot of smooth, funky, and soulful attitude delivered with a Southern drawl. It's a version of country that includes a lot of organ, and rounds the edges off of everything until it goes down easy like a good sipping whiskey or the whipped butter on a biscuit. Fellow songwriters like Adam Hood and Jason Eady have been releasing similar projects lately. But Southern Star might lean into this style more than any before.

Specifically 'Southern Star' was a bar that Brent Cobb used to hang at with Jason 'Rowdy' Cope, who was the guitar player for Jamey Johnson, and eventually a founding member of The Steel Woods. Cope was a mentor to Cobb before he passed away in 2021. But similar to how people tell you to pin your eye on a 'Northern Star' as a compass point in life, Brent Cobb is aiming toward a Southern one to help reset your perspective. ~savingcountrymusic.com
