“DRINKS CAN DRINK” CONTINUES RISE AS SING-ALONG SUMMER JAM
“A LITTLE SOUTHERN ROCK, MODERN PRODUCTION AND A COMMANDING TONE”

“CODY WRITES TRULY PRESENT AND HEART-GRIPPING STORIES”
– COUNTRY CENTRAL
NASHVILLE, TENN. – Today, country riser Cody Lohden continues his ascent as an artist-to-watch with new song “Gettin’ Nowhere.” The singer-songwriter hailing from Garfield, Kentucky writes from small-town experience that resonates. Gaining traction for his mix of heart and hooks, chart-topping superstar HARDY described Lohden’s recent “Buckle Up” as “so well written” on an episode of Broken Record Podcast.
“Gettin’ Nowhere” was written alongside Matt Mulhare with production by Jordan Schmidt (Ella Langley, Kane Brown). On today’s release, Lohden turns to his truck to clear his head:
I take my truck and throw it in drive
Turn up some dirt I’ve turned a few times
Roll down my windows, crank it on up
Sip a little whiskey from a Dixie Cup
I put the hammer down on that stretch
Mile after mile ’til I clear my head
Burn up some gasoline ’til I don’t care
I ride in this truck gettin’ nowhere
With each new release, Lohden proves his pedigree as part of the next generation of country hitmakers. “Drinks Can Drink” leads the pack as a summer jam on repeat and his highest streamer. His recent slow-burning “Camels In The Console” was praised as “his best work to date” by Country Central while “Go Round” was called “a radio-ready hit and a lived-in slice of Americana” by All Country News.
The former firefighter / paramedic is set to play Voices of America in West Chester Township, Ohio next month. Stay up to date with Cody Lohden here.
ABOUT CODY LOHDEN
A vocal powerhouse with both the pipes and penmanship of an authentic country hero, Cody Lohden is a singer-songwriter signed to ERN’s Cadillac Music / DeVille Records, primed for a creative breakout. The former firefighter / paramedic spent the last few years on a unique story of self-styled success and now answers the call of a new artistic chapter. Raised in Garfield, Kentucky, Lohden got his first guitar at 12 and quickly put it to use, drawn to the simplicity of country craftsmen like Keith Whitley and Don Williams, and the greasy grit of rockers like Bob Seger. He joined the school choir but was too shy to sing solo… until Lohden’s dad entered him in a local singing competition, which he won. Performing for a crowd of 800, his stage fright was replaced by a passion for the stage, and Lohden went on to make monthly trips to Nashville, learning to write songs with a lived-in mix of heart and hooks. Lohden was releasing music independently while living on a buddy’s couch for six months when one of his TikTok videos went viral, connecting the raw talent with hitmaker ERNEST. Lohden signed a publishing deal with ERN’s Cadillac Music four months before making the move to Nashville, and has since toured in support of Bailey Zimmerman, Walker Hayes and ERNEST, while co-writing cuts for ERNEST, Zimmerman, Austin Snell and others.
