What drives “Paradise”calls to mind “Room For Squares”-era John Mayer- with its nimble Belief-esque guitar riff that opens the song. The refreshingly honest semi-autobiographical lyric delivered with the confidence and swagger of Ed Sheeran reminds the listener that all the trappings that life throws can’t compare to a life of following God. An openly devout Christian, Coby shares what drives him the most: “I want people to see my perspective as a teenager going through life. Hopefully they see where I find my hope and my peace and that God is where I find my strength.”
With a 5-song EP and 31 city tour with Grammy-nominated and Dove award winning artist Danny Gokey on the way this fall, the future looks bright for the guitar slinging wunderkind.
