Cody will headline Globe Life Field on November 9, home of the Texas Rangers, and is set to launch his Leather Deluxe Tour on January 17, 2025. GRAMMY-award winner Ashley McBryde, Drew Baldridge, Chayce Beckham, Randy Houser and Walker Montgomery join as special guests next year. Media has claimed Cody is ‘raucously entertaining’ with ‘the ability to connect with his fans through story-telling lyrics’ in concert. He will also bring that talent and enthusiasm to concerts in Australia and New Zealand next spring routing around headline performances at C2C Festival & CMC Rocks 2025. Special guests on the down under dates include Cole Swindell, Ashley Cooke and Wade Forster.

In a story out today written by Jessica Nicholson, Billboard claims Cody’s successful albums, singles and touring work together, “Along the way, pairing those releases and hits with steady-handed touring and his hard-charging, energetic stage show has aided in building Johnson’s reputation as one of the traditional country music’s tip-of-the-spear torchbearers.”
