"Darrin Kobetich is one of those rare treasures in Tarrant County. He plays at great venues around town, has an ever-growing following of loyal and truly addicted fans, but the vast depth of his talent has not yet been realized by the masses which means that if you are going to see him, you had better do it now before fame makes him unavailable. If you ask a fan what kind of music he plays, they will have a hard time answering you. To some it is folk, to some it is bluegrass but with a twist, to some it is acoustic rock and roll. No matter how you define it, it is hypnotic, entrancing, deliciously wicked and if you have a deep appreciation for how quickly fingers can move across a guitar string, it is nearly unfathomable."

"Darrin's a really disciplined player, but his technique never gets in the way of the human sound in his music (whether he's playing solo acoustic, bluegrass, or metal) -- no matter what the subject of the day is, he leaves a lot of blood on the strings." -Ken Shimamoto, THE STASH DAUBER (Aug 16, 2005) - - - - - - - -
"This is a particularly impressive feat, considering that almost every song I have heard is all instrumental. Some songs sound like what Nick Drake would have sounded like if he had been born in Texas, while other tracks have a stronger Eastern and Indian influence." - "The Ghost", THE GHOST OF BLIND LEMON (Apr 21, 2008) - - - - - - - -
".containing elements of bluegrass, raga, flamenco, and near eastern musics. once when i walked in on him and percussionist mike padilla in full flight after listening to the world saxophone quartet in the car, some of his chords sounded like horn hits to me." - Ken Shimamoto, THE STASH DAUBER (Apr 11, 2005) - - - - - - - -
"A veteran thrash metal guitarist of both the Fort Worth and Dallas scenes, Kobetich decided three years ago to concentrate on his original acoustic instrumental work whose influences range as far as Celtic and Appalachian to Turkish and Moroccan." - Jim Fowler, Fort Worth Weekly (Jul 20, 2005) - - - - - - - -
".the eclectic axe-slinger may have painted his masterpiece.there are all kinds of ways of tapping into the sources of creativity. It sounds as though Darrin was tapped deep into those sources." - Ken Shimamoto , I Love Fort Worth - - - - - - - -
