| Cody Lawson 10:30 PM |

| Cody Lawson is passionate about reviving the roots of what made him fall in love with country music in the first place. Some people think that traditional country music is a lost art, but I think that the passion and message behind country music is still out there and Im hoping to bring that back to the forefront. I truly believe that there are still honest, hardworking people out there who appreciate music that connects with everyday life. I want to give those people both a way to relate to my music and an opportunity to escape and just enjoy this crazy ride we call life. |
