KEEPIN' IT UN-REAL

About Me


"I have listened to THE SMELL OF ROCK AND ROLL dozens of times now without getting even a little tired of it's clean melodies, intelligent hooks, and singable lyrics. Every song on this CD shines like a diamond." - Glenn Tillman, Hellride Music
"Johnny Kobra has achieved a timeless sound without seeming retro or ironic, but perfectly genuine." -Wade Coggeshall, Hardcore Sounds
"When I heard the first track, I knew I was in for a good time. 'Can't Get Enough' is an excellent introduction for the fun that is to follow. On tracks like 'Wild Horses' and 'Cinnamon Stone', Kobra presents bluesy, poppy rock without being annoying… something some major label acts could stand to learn from." - Jol Online, Glitzine
BUY OR DIE:
The independently released solo debut CD - THE SMELL OF ROCK AND ROLL - receiving rave reviews all over the world, is one of the best rock records ever made by humans..
Johnny Kobra makes catchy tunes, cut with an edge, sprinkled with spicy blues-dust. The fangs may sting your skin, but the venom that infects your blood is a pleasant drug that will seduce you and make you beg for more.
Born in Sweden, Johnny grew up musically playing the Stockholm city rock clubs. Johnny has traveled the far corners of the world and he is currently based in Los Angeles, California.
