Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and musician Brent Cobb and his band The Fixin’s have released their new song, ‘Take Yer Meds’.
Of the track, Cobb shares, “Everybody in this world is on something. Whether it’s caffeine, an exercise routine, nicotine, religion or something stronger… we all have our something to help us get through this awfully wonderful experience of life. And there’s nothin’ wrong with a little assistance, I don’t think. Go on, take ‘yer medicine – whatever that is.”
‘Take Yer Meds’ is the latest track unveiled from Cobb’s anticipated new album, Ain’t Rocked in a While, which will be released July 11th via Ol’ Buddy Records/Thirty Tigers and is the first project he’s recorded with his band.
Ahead of the release, Cobb recently released ‘Even If It’s Broke’ and the title track, of which Whiskey Riff praises, “rocking southern soul…this single rips,” while Glide proclaims, “The fuzzy garage rock tune features psychedelic tendencies that aid in the message of the song; Never forget to leave some time for old-fashioned rocking.”
Produced by Cobb and Oran Thornton, Ain’t Rocked in a While captures the electric energy of Cobb’s live shows, while still keeping his signature storytelling at the forefront. Recorded live to tape at The Black Palace in Springfield, Missouri, the album finds Cobb returning to his roots, as he blends his timeless country sound with influences from the classic rock bands he grew up listening to, such as Black Sabbath, Metallica and AC/DC.
Reflecting on the project, Cobb shares, “I feel like sometimes when people come to our shows, there might be a disconnect. People might view me as just a singer-songwriter. You know, sit down and tell ‘em a nice, little Southern story. Sing ‘em a song. And our live show kinda rocks. Sometimes people are taken aback. I want people to have an album of reference.”
