See below for compete 2021 tour itinerary.
The upcoming performances add to a series of landmark years for Cobb, who released his first ever children’s book, Little Stuff, this past June via his own Ol’ Buddy Publishing (purchase here). Illustrated by Delaney Royer, Little Stuff was written as a reflection on what’s truly important in life and was inspired by Cobb’s song of the same name from his acclaimed new album, Keep ‘Em On They Toes. Of the book, Sounds Like Nashville praises, “one of Nashville’s most prolific and interesting songwriters. He puts pen to paper, words to music, and creates masterful projects that will last forever…inspiring,” while The Good-Bad Dad declares, “Brent Cobb is a father and family man first and a thoughtful, soulful country music icon next—a perfect recipe for a tender book that teaches kids to enjoy what is right in front of them…Cobb’s latest masterpiece.”
Released this past fall via Cobb’s label, Ol’ Buddy Records, Keep ‘Em On They Toes was produced by Brad Cook (Waxahatchie, Bon Iver, Hiss Golden Messenger) and created after Cobb moved back to his home state of Georgia after several years between Nashville and Los Angeles—a decision that greatly influenced his songwriting. The ten tracks find Cobb with a new reflective mindset, focusing on how he views the world and expressing his own opinions, thoughts and feelings.

Keep ‘Em On They Toes furthers a notable career for the Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter and musician following 2018’s Providence Canyon and 2016’s Shine On Rainy Day. Of Cobb, NPR Music declares, “a troubadour whose classic country-rock songs are enhanced by his warm heart and keen eye,” while The Fader praises, “He has been able to straddle the mainstream country and Americana worlds…with a swampy, twangy sound that eagerly dips into funk and soul while still retaining a deeply loose, deeply southern quality” and Esquire proclaims, “A young master of country-funk.”
Cobb has earned nominations for Best Americana Album at the 60th GRAMMY Awards and Emerging Artist of the Year at the 2017 Americana Honors & Awards. He has also been featured on “CONAN,” “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and NPR Music’s “Tiny Desk Concert” series and has toured extensively across the world including numerous performances as part of Chris Stapleton’s “All-American Road Show.”
