21+ / www.joesbar.comThe American south isnt just Brent Cobbs home. Its his muse, too. A Georgia native, he fills his Grammy-nominated songwriting with the sounds and stories of an area thats been home to southern rockers, soul singers, country legends, and bluesmen. Cobb has a name for that rich tapestry of music southern eclectic and he offers up his own version of it with his newest album, Southern Star.Filled with country-soul songwriting, laid back grooves, and classic storytelling, Southern Star distills the best parts of southern culture into 10 of the strongest songs in Cobbs catalog. He began writing the material after leaving Nashville where he spent a decade releasing solo records like 2016s Shine On Rainy Day (which earned a Grammy nomination for Best Americana Album) while penning hit songs for Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Little Big Town, and dozens of others and returning with his family to Georgia. During the months leading up to Southern Stars release, Cobb spent much of his time on the road, playing to stadium crowds of 60,000 people as Luke Combs opening act. Perhaps thats why Southern Star feels so well-timed. Not only is it a snapshot of an artist at the peak of his songwriting abilities; its also a love letter to his southern roots, made all the more potent by his recent travels.With Brent Cobb, the southern star shines on.
