Brent Cobb and Them, Savannah Conley

When: Fri., April 13, 8 p.m. 2018

Every time you think the old warhorse southern rock has died off like the buffalo, it rears its rascally head again like ... well, the buffalo. Brent Cobb is no Skynyrd throwback by any stretch, but he brings the spirit of southern rock into poetic songs like the terrific talking blues “Ain’t a Road Too Long” and the tear-stained “King of Alabama,” a tale of a fallen friend set to sweet-home guitar riffage and heartstrings-pulling vintage keyboards.
