Cody Johnson grew up hunting and fishing in rural Texas with two dreams: to be a singer and a cowboy. Not only does CoJo continue to sell out stadiums, but he has his own ranch filled with horses, cows, and pastures. If only young Cody could see him now!

Troy Vollhoffer, CEO of Country Thunder, is thrilled to welcome Cody Johnson on the bus this week. Cody explains how he started bull riding in high school and what it’s like having his own official roping event. Troy and Cody discuss the ups and downs of pursuing music without a backup. Cody details why letting the band rip during recording sessions and improvising on stage allowed him to find his authentic artistic voice.
