Shake Some Action: Weekend Playlist by Cobra Cabana

by | Oct 18, 2019 | MUSIC

Every Friday night, RVA Mag brings you an A-plus can’t-miss playlist curated by Virginia’s most influential artists, musicians, and institutions.

This time around, our playlist comes from Cobra Cabana, the much-loved restaurant and bar on Marshall St in Carver. They’ll be rocking hard all day tomorrow with a one-year anniversary party sure to be the highlight of your weekend. As much of a staple as this place has become in its first year of existence, it’s hard to believe it’s been in our lives for such a short time. Here’s to many more years of awesomeness!

Saturday’s party, a free affair, begins around 3 PM and will last into the night. It will feature performances by legendary rap superstar Kool Keith and stoner rock veterans Weedeater, both of whom show up on the playlist Cobra Cabana put together as a sneak preview for RVA Mag’s readers. There are a ton of incredible sounds on the playlist, from Euro-pop and essential disco to No Wave, hardcore punk, and classic country — plus a whole lot more. Put it on now and you’ll blast it all weekend — except when you’re actually at Cobra Cabana, of course.

Dig in, Virginia.
