Cody Weaver
Cody Weaver is releasing his debut EP, Southern Noise, today.
“It’s the first compilation of songs that I’ve put together, which is really cool to see come to life,” says Weaver. “Listening to all of these songs in order takes you on a journey through all kinds of emotions. These songs stand out to me because they have a familiar traditional country sound but all of me and the band’s influences are clearly evident, such as rock, metal, blues and funk.”
The hard-hitting, arena-ready second single, “Cope,” was written on Weaver’s back porch in a stream of consciousness, and completed in under an hour. “Not This Time,” the EP’s third track, opens with a traditional country fiddle melody that flirts with bluegrass. “Before I Met You” takes the listener away from the heartbreak of “Not This Time” and into a newfound love, detailing an appreciation of what’s truly important once you find the perfect match. The high-energy title track, “Southern Noise,” wraps the EP with a party— a rowdy barn-burner that is a sure contender for a Cody Weaver live show encore.
