Cedar County Cobras

This group plays American roots and blues music from the last century.

The music takes on an “old time” blues feel that would most likely be found in a juke-joint down a gravel road in rural Iowa. All members of the project are multi-instrumentalists and play a number of different instruments. The music is contagious, acoustic rockabilly, dancing bluegrass

or old time country with the gritty sound of soulful blues. It is almost impossible to box the sound of the Cobras into one musical genre when you hear an eclectic mix of acoustic blues and gypsy mandolin tunes that can only be heard in the Cobras songs.
