“The refreshingly authentic Cedar County Cobras draw heavily from Delta blues, early country, folk traditions, and rural Americana. You’ll agree the Cedar County Cobras write songs that sound as though they’ve been living in the American songbook for generations.” - Making a Scene

Cedar County Cobras

Americana Roots & Blues

Cedar County Cobras play American Roots & 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. Arriving with an upright bass, foot-drum, mandolin, and a collection of guitars this duo plays music that is best described as “boot-stompin” delta blues and roots blues.

Album Reviews

“This is the music that is the American heartbeat, pulsating with the rhythms of Delta blues, early country, folk traditions, and rural Americana. The Cedar County Cobras make music that certainly reflects the richness, diversity, and unpredictability of travel across the United States.” - Raymond Muller

— Blues Notes & Conversations

“"Sinners & Saints" is an album of truth. Cedar County Cobras affirm their place in the great tradition of American rural blues, while injecting their personality, their experiences, and their stage energy. The duo manages to capture on record what makes them so powerful on stage: music that moves, breathes, unites, and tells a story.” - Fred Delforge

— Zicazic

“‘Sinners & Saints’ finds the Cedar County Cobras walking the line between Saturday-night sinners and Sunday-morning saints. Authentic, atmospheric, and full of character, the album proves that the duo can honour the roots of American music while making it distinctly their own.” - Gerry McNally
