BRENT COBB’S PROVIDENCE CANYON NOW STREAMING AT NPR MUSIC

ALBUM OUT THIS FRIDAY, PRE-ORDER NOW

CURRENTLY ON TOUR, WILL JOIN “CHRIS STAPLETON’S ALL-AMERICAN ROAD SHOW” THIS SUMMER/FALL

“WHO WOULDN'T WANT TO BE AS COMFORTABLE IN THEIR SKIN AS COBB'S IS ON PROVIDENCE CANYON?” “CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM, IT'S GONNA BE THE SUMMER SOUNDTRACK.”

Brent Cobb’s highly anticipated new album, Providence Canyon, is now streaming in full at NPR Music’s “First Listen” series. Listen/share HERE. “Nobody is more fluent in country-funk than Brent Cobb,” NPR Music’s Jewly Hight asserts. “His latest, Providence Canyon, is burlier, deeper in the pocket and even more satisfying…He applied as much wit and craftsmanship to the feel of the 11 tracks as he did to the songwriting itself, enhancing the textures of his down-home settings and characters.”

Recorded at Nashville’s RCA Studio A with Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb, Providence Canyon will be released this Friday, May 11 on Low Country Sound/Elektra Records and is now available for pre-order. Each digital pre-order comes with an immediate download of four album tracks: “Come Home Soon,” “Mornin’s Gonna Come,” “King of Alabama” and “Ain’t A Road Too Long.”

In celebration of the album, Cobb’s “Ain’t A Road Too Long” tour is currently underway, featuring special guest Savannah Conley. Following these headline dates, Cobb will once again join Chris Stapleton on his “All-American Road Show” this summer and fall including dates at L.A.’s The Forum, Chicago’s Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre and New York’s Madison Square Garden.

The new album and tour follow a breakthrough few years for Cobb, who was nominated for Best Americana Album at the 60th GRAMMY Awards for his major label debut, Shine On Rainy Day. Released in 2016 to overwhelming acclaim, The Tennessean calls the album, “…an outstanding piece of work and a collection of true, country songs,” while WXPN World Café asserts, “…a gorgeous solo album that promises to place him in the top echelon of this century’s young troubadours…” Since the album’s release, Cobb was also nominated for Emerging Artist of the Year at the 2017 Americana Honors & Awards and made his television debut on CONAN.

Cobb was born in Americus, Georgia, about an hour east of Columbus, in the rural south-central part of the state. In addition to his work as an artist, Cobb is widely respected as a songwriter garnering cuts by Lee Ann Womack, Luke Bryan, The Oak Ridge Boys, Little Big Town, Miranda Lambert and more.
