Authenticity and hard work are the core values Cody Hibbard lives by. “What you see” is what the fans are going to get whether it’s behind the scenes, at a live show, or you happen to catch him at the grocery store.
Cody grew up in the little town of Adair, OK where he spent a lot of time working on his family farm. There was always a radio playing anything from Rock to Country to even Gospel music. This would begin to help shape the influences listeners hear today in his songs. Music would always play an important part of his life, but it would not become part of his plans until after high school.
Cody attended the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD where injuries would bring him to a different part of his life, Pipelining. Working consistently and constantly running the roads brought new light to the small-town kid, which would lead him to picking up a guitar around the campfires and start finding the courage to sing around his fellow blue-collar workers.
In the Spring of 2019, Cody was headed down to Conroe, TX to take another Oilfield job. He stopped off in at a Tex-Mex restaurant in Crockett, TX to eat with some friends along the way. Their waiter stopped Cody from ordering with a phrase very common to him, “You don’t sound how you look.” One of his friends replied for him saying, “You think that’s weird, you ought to hear him sing.” One thing led to another, a guitar was broke out, and Cody was asked to come back and start singing bar gigs. He found a deep love for writing songs soon after and recorded his first, Half Whiskey, Half Lonely at Rosewood Studios, which dropped September 2019.
Cody released his first EP, Memory and a Dirt Road in January of 2020 which has garnished millions of streams followed by his hit singles Ice Cold Therapy, Armed and Dangerous, and The Truth in the summer of 2020. His highly anticipated self-titled EP is set to make waves early fall of 2021.
