Cody has no problem admitting that his life and career is where it is because of the love and support of his wife Brandi, “She’s a 100% of it, honestly. When I met her I was a pretty crazy young guy and she’s helped me grow. She’s helped me become a man that I’m proud to be, and she holds down the house and she holds down the whole fort. You know, from the kids and the ranch to keeping me going, from little simple things like my clothes going to the cleaners and coming back and being ready for the road – just little stuff and every little tiny thing she does is so big for me and she gives me the courage to keep going.”

“Human” is the follow-up single to Cody Johnson’s smash hit number-one “‘Til You Can’t.”

Heading into his shows this weekend – including playing Empower Field at Mile High in Denver with Luke Combs – Cody Johnson has just announced 22 new concert dates for this fall.

Cody has played every size stage there is…from club shows, to arenas, to Rodeo Houston, to stadiums…but it doesn’t matter where he steps out to perform because you are going to get the same effort every time from him.

As far as his philosophy to playing concerts, Cody says “Leave nothing behind. We play this show like it’s the last show we’re ever going to play…this is the show we get remembered for. I hit the stage with the exact same mentality and the exact same intensity every single night, because we’re not guaranteed tomorrow, so it’s like you gotta go out there and you gotta play it like it’s the last one. You gotta play it with the same intensity as if you’re never going to get to do it again.”

That’s not to say that Cody doesn’t enjoy all the work paying off, “Now, after the fact we can be like ‘man, that was cool’ but when you’re in the moment…you’re like, leave no doubt, leave nothing behind, make sure they remember your name.”

A lot of people are remembering Cody Johnson’s name as his hit song “‘Til You Can’t” continues to be one of the biggest hits on country radio.

Fans are still talking about the impactful music video too…

The Heartland Stampede has officially been cancelled for 2020. The festival, the first under the new moniker after spending 23 years as Country Stampede, was to be held June 25-27, 2020 in Topeka. Luke Combs, Toby Keith and Cody Johnson were to have been the headliners.

“From the bottom of our hearts, we are sorry for keeping your hopes up that we could make it happen,” Stampede organizers said in a statement to fans on social media. “Every effort was made for a possible reschedule date, but dates and artists were not available. This is not the course of action we want to take, however with the new government COVID19 recovery measures indicating mass gatherings will not be permitted, and in times of unprecedented uncertainty, this is now our only viable option.”

The team behind Stampede has announced that they will move forward with a 2021 edition, which is planned for June 24-26, also at Heartland Park. No headliners or act information is available at present. If you wish to rollover your tickets from this year to next, Stampede has announced that will be allowed. They will also honor refund requests. Information on how to do both can be found here.
