So, I had this awesome chance to chat with Cody Johnson recently, and let me tell you, it was like hanging out with the cool cousin who actually knows how to ride a horse and not just pretend at family reunions. First off, we dove into his latest single, “The Painter.” It’s not just any song; it’s a deep dive into the story of his and his wife’s relationship. Imagine painting a picture with music, capturing all the ups and downs, the love, the struggles, and turning it into a melody. That’s “The Painter” for you.
Then, we shifted gears to his live performances. If you’re expecting to hear the same tunes you jam to on the radio, think again. Cody’s setlist is like a secret menu at your favorite coffee shop; it’s unique and full of surprises. It’s a blend of new, old, and sometimes unheard tracks that you can only experience live. It’s like he’s crafting a special mixtape for every show.
And here’s the kicker: Cody jokingly said he’d put me to work on his ranch next time I’m in Texas. I mean, who wouldn’t want to trade a keyboard for a cowboy hat, even if just for a day? It’s all about getting your hands dirty and experiencing the real deal. So, if you don’t hear from me for a while, you know where I’ll be – probably trying to figure out which end of a horse is which on Cody Johnson’s ranch.
