 Cody Gill’s debut performance took place more than a decade ago. A Stephenville native, Gill spent many of his early years in Houston working an 8 to 5 gig before listening to his heart and moving back home to pursue a life in music. He has since established a reputation for genuine, real life narratives in his lyrics. Two full length albums later and with loyal fans spanning the country, Gill has solidified his place in the Texas country music scene.

Cody Gill has all of his cards on the table with his new EP arriving in early 2011, which features the hit single “Road Signs”. He hopes that this will be his best work yet. “The music business is changing; it has been changing. Fans receive music much differently now than in the past” says Gill. While expanding his musical horizons, Gill is staying true to his roots of passion and integrity and expects that his new work will be well received. “I want my music to reach beyond state lines, but not lose its integrity. I won’t lose where I came from.”

Gill’s new EP will be a follow up to his self-produced sophomore album, King of Your Hometown, released in 2009 in collaboration with Smith Entertainment. The album’s first two singles “King of Your Hometown”, a good hearted, satirical memoir of sorts, and “Crazy”, an upbeat sing-a-long, both reached the “Top 30” on the Texas Music Chart. “Road Signs”, mixed and engineered by Erik Herbst, was the rocking fan favorite. It peaked at #18 on the Texas Music Chart. The album filled the Lonestar Music #2 Best Seller position for two months. The success of King of Your Hometown gave Gill the recognition and honor of receiving a Gruene with Envy ‘New Artist of the Year’ nomination.

In 2007, Gill’s debut album Boxcars, produced by Mike McClure, also churned out a Texas Music Chart hit. “Can’t Let Her Go” spent an astonishing nine months on the Chart, showing that Gill is no stranger to chart topping hits. The powerful vocals of Gill combined with the soaring guitar of lead man Zack Hooper, driving drums of Jarrod Baker, interwoven bass grooves of Zach ‘Cooder’ Wade, and harmonious keys of Kayleigh Jones make for one magnetic stage performance.

 

Gill’s touring radius is expanding as his popularity grows. “Road signs keep flying by” as he hits the pavement over 175 days a year. Recent shows have him breaking out of the borders of the Lonestar State in support of his new EP due out in early 2011. Gill shows no signs of slowing down and says “every road is worth traveling at least once".

Hometown heros? I think these guys are doing pretty good for barely playing for 2 years. A great CD produced by one of the best producers on the scene and a pretty hefty touring schedule all over the state...keep rockin guys!

You guys are getting lots better. The new drummer is really solid, too--not too busy, and he doesn't get in the way. You sort of got away with covering the Doors, Beatles, and Dylan all in the same hour! Ever spray paint a Stradivarius?

I think these guys are great. Not many bands can pull off what they do in the studio, and then make it even better at a live show.

Incredible. The cd is now my new favorite. I love Can't Let her Go, Home, Gone and Ryan's Song. Actually, I listen to it all the way through no need for skipping over any of the songs. They rock when you see them live as well. Be sure to buy a ticket and a cd. Next thing you know you'll be addicted like me.

Heard them a couple of weeks ago, and liked them enough that I'm going to hear them again Saturday in FW. Good stuff, not like most of the crap on the radio.
