THIS WEEK'S FEATURED ARTIST • CODY HIBBARD Growing up on his family farm in Adair, Oklahoma CODY HIBBARD was first introduced to music while riding around in his dad’s tractor listening to Country radio as a kid. Years after picking up his first guitar, Cody started honing his songwriting skills, based on a deep-rooted love of country music, the values of hard work, and his many different life experiences including his acceptance into the United States Naval Academy. Cody recorded his first single, Half Whiskey, Half Lonely in 2019 at Rosewood Studios with producer Drew Hall, followed by the rest of his debut EP with producer Philip Mosley. The result, Memory and a Dirt Road, saw Just for the Record debut at #25 on the Texas Music Pickers Spotify charts, as well as being added to the New Music Nashville and Texas Music Now Spotify editorial playlists. Having already performed on opening slots for names such as Sundance Head, Josh Ward, and Bart Crow, Cody and his band have a busy start to 2020.

This is his newest single now on the charts JUST FOR THE RECORD
