EDITOR’S PICK
Nov. 8
Brent Cobb at Ardmore Music Hall
Ardmore
On his latest album, Southern Star, Brent Cobb takes stock of, among other things, the Nashville music industry’s 18-year transformation at the hands of Shooter Jennings, the Steel Woods, Sturgill Simpson and other outlaw country acts. The album was recorded in Cobb’s home state of Georgia at Macon’s legendary Capricorn Sound Studios, once a go-to spot for such iconic acts as the Allman Brothers, Elvin Bishop and the Charlie Daniels Band. Expect an ample dose of potent downhome storytelling at his latest Ardmore Music Hall appearance. Visit ardmoremusichall.com.
