Brent Cobb<\/a> knows firsthand how the \u201cYellowstone Effect\u201d can change a country artist\u2019s career \u2014 and he\u2019s more than happy to explain how it works.<\/p>\n With music featured on both Yellowstone<\/a><\/em> and Landman<\/em>, Cobb has seen the boost that comes from having a song placed on a hit Taylor Sheridan<\/a> show.<\/p>\n For artists who don\u2019t always land in the mainstream spotlight, it can be a game-changing moment.<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019ve been so good to me over there,\u201d Cobb said of Sheridan\u2019s team. \u201cAndrea Von Foerster, [the music supervisor], she\u2019s awesome.\u201d<\/p>\n His music has been part of the Yellowstone<\/em> universe since the very beginning<\/a>. In fact, his version of \u201cLet the Rain Come Down\u201d was used in the pilot preview for Yellowstone<\/em>, before the series even officially launched.<\/p>\n Cobb\u2019s \u201cI Ain\u2019t Livin\u2019\u201d was featured in Yellowstone<\/em> Season 5, and \u201cSnakebite\u201d appeared in Landman<\/em> Season 1.<\/p>\n It\u2019s the kind of exposure that\u2019s hard to replicate<\/a> \u2014 and the kind that often leads to a major spike in streams, chart movement, and new fans.<\/p>\n Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>The Top 10 Brent Cobb Songs Every New Fan Should Hear<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cAlmost any series [Sheridan] has his hands on puts country music front and center,\u201d Cobb told Whiskey Riff<\/em><\/a> \u2014 and that includes artists like Colter Wall, Charley Crockett, and Whiskey Myers, who are often overlooked in mainstream country circles.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re wondering whether Sheridan asks artists to write custom songs for scenes \u2014 the answer, at least in Cobb\u2019s case, is no.<\/p>\n \u201c[They just reach out] kind of,\u201d Cobb explained. \u201cThey don\u2019t really ask for specific<\/a>, \u2018Hey, we have this scene, would you try to write about this?\u2019… The way that it works usually is that it\u2019s something I had already written.\u201d<\/p>\n That organic approach seems to be working. Cobb says he\u2019s always grateful when his music is chosen, and he hopes to stay in the rotation as more shows roll out from Sheridan\u2019s ever-growing TV empire.<\/p>\n For up-and-coming artists, Cobb says the “Yellowstone Effect” is real<\/a> \u2014 and it can be the start of something big.<\/p>\n There’s a lot of true country music stereotypes. The one about how every other song is about beer? And the one about country artists proudly flying the flag for America? Yep, we’ll cop to those.<\/p>\n But the genre gets a bad rap on a few different points. Keep reading for a list of country music stereotypes that simply aren’t true.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: Carena Liptak<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nA TV Boost You Can Feel<\/h3>\n
