Chicago Music: Cobalt and the Hired Guns

Cobalt and the Hired guns have stage presents like so many bands wish they could.  It is so clear that these guys are loving every moment that they are singing.  Their sound is also very unique with the combination of sax, accordion, and a special way to play the drums.  Drummer Jesse becomes a one-man percussion section. He has a box, a single drum, a cymbal and anything he can hit these things with including a drum stick, shakers, a tambourine and even sometimes a banana.

Their acoustic set was amazing and was full of the energy of a show. We hope that you enjoy them as much as we do, we think that you will.  Below are the first couple videos from Cobalt and the Hired Guns. More coming soon. You can see their Chicago Rocks episode here.
