"Darrin Kobetich is one of those rare treasures in Tarrant County. He plays at great venues around town, has an ever-growing following of loyal and truly addicted fans, but the vast depth of his talent has not yet been realized by the masses which means that if you are going to see him, you had better do it now before fame makes him unavailable. If you ask a fan what kind of music he plays, they will have a hard time answering you. To some it is folk, to some it is bluegrass but with a twist, to some it is acoustic rock and roll. No matter how you define it, it is hypnotic, entrancing, deliciously wicked and if you have a deep appreciation for how quickly fingers can move across a guitar string, it is nearly unfathomable."
