Best Leather Jacket Band Name Ever
The gritty, urban-tonk sounds of the distinguished Detroit Cobras will give Chicago two things to rejoice about this spring. First, on Friday, March 2nd, the Cobras will strike Logan Square Auditorium. Thanks to a major promotion push by Irving Park Road country dandies Bloodshot Records, this event will not only be FREE, but feature an opening set by Chicago legends The Blacks, who will reform yet again to tantalize the ears of the dirty roots faithful. The Blacks last played at a reunion show in July of last year, and a video clip from that amazing performance is included below. But I digress: the second exciting moment brought to Cobra aficionados will be a new record, their first since 2005's Baby (check out a track from that record here), entitled Tied & True. Look for free Bloodshot samplers as give-aways at the Logan Square show and for the new Cobras record to hit shelves on April 24th.
