Southern alt rocker Willy Cobb holds nothing back on his new single entitled Sincerely FU out now via War Buddha / Warner Records. “I love the sound on Sincerely FU and what it has developed into. When I first wrote the track with Brent Cobb (Luke Bryan, Miranda Lambert), it had a more Otis Redding sound, but eventually I dropped the tuning and it turned into the grungy sound we have today,” says Willy Cobb.

On the track, a woozy and boozy groove hulks along as Cobb leans into an unexpectedly sunny fifties-style cadence. While distortion roars in the background, he laments: “Baby, they tried to save me, my friends and my family, from you, but I wouldn’t hear it.” Finally flipping off an ex who deserved to be jettisoned long ago, he rips a fiery fret-burning solo as a send-off on the outro.

It follows the raucous County Punkin’, and his debut single Cigarette Smell, which garnered widespread critical acclaim. Cobb also recently shared the stage with Chris Shiflett of Foo Fighters and The Cadillac Three across North America and Europe.
