Artículo del Detroitisit The Detroit Cobras. Do they need an introduction? Perhaps Detroit’s most famous ‘cover band,’ building a unique sound from the blocks of such greats as Otis Redding and Little Willie John to famed Motown girl groups like the Shangri-Las. Which is to say they’ve made a career of improving on perfection. Forming in the mid-1990s, they helped—and continue to —define the Detroit garage rock scene. At the core of its rotating cast of characters are two fierce–as nails–women, vocalist Rachel Nagy and Mary Ramirez—the latter described by Third Man Records as “one of the greatest guitarists to ever come out of Detroit.” Ever. From Detroit, the city of Jack White and Fred “Sonic” Smith. Those are big words. To say we’re humbled to have caught up with Rachel and Mary, however briefly, is a vast understatement. Their level of cool is beyond intimidating. Also, there is a distinct possibility they may be vampires. After 25 years, they are sincerely, absolutely, and mind blowing-ly hitting it just as hard as they did on day one. Which bodes awesome for those of you headed to their show tomorrow night, Saturday, February 22nd, at El Club. CV HENRIETTE: ORIGIN OF THE DETROIT COBRAS?
