Cody Jinks Gears Up For First Rounder Records Release In July

Cody Jinks is set to release his latest album Lifers on July 27. The 11-track album is his first release for Rounder Records, and is now available for pre-order at rounder.lnk.to/codyjinks. The project’s first single, “Must Be the Whiskey,” was just released June 15. 

Lifers includes tracks like “Holy Water,” the confessional-feeling “Stranger,” and “Head Case,” the title track/ode to hardworking folks, “Lifers,” and the zesty two-stepper “Can’t Quit Enough.” The project is Jinks’ eighth, and follows his last release, I’m Not The Devil, which debuted at No. 4 on the Billboard country chart, No. 3 on the independent music chart, and Top 30 on the pop chart.

The album release will be followed by Jinks’ inaugural Loud and Heavy Fest, a multi-stage day of music, arts and food on Aug. 18 at the scenic Panther Island Pavilion along the banks of the Trinity River in Fort Worth, Texas, the city where he was raised. The line-up capped by Jinks and his band includes his friends and favorites Whiskey Myers, Corrosion of Conformity, Whitey Morgan, Colter Wall, Nikki Lane, The Sword, Paul Cauthen, Sunny Sweeney and Ward Davis.
