Cody Cannon

As the lead vocalist and primary songwriter for the acclaimed rock and country band Whiskey Myers, Cody Cannon has spearheaded the group’s rise since its formation in 2007. Cannon led the band to release their debut album, ‘Road of Life,’ in 2008. Their second album, ‘Firewater,’ released in 2011, marked their first significant charting success, reaching the Top 30 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart, largely driven by the single ‘Ballad of a Southern Man.’ The single itself climbed to No. 1 on the highly competitive Texas Music Charts the same year.

6 on the Billboard 200. Prior to their self-titled album, Cannon and Whiskey Myers collaborated with GRAMMY-winner Dave Cobb. However, starting with the 2019 release, Cannon championed a shift towards self-production, allowing the band greater creative control to authentically represent their artistic vision. This organic approach to music creation, combined with Cannon’s distinctive songwriting—which frequently explores themes from his personal experiences—has been central to the band’s sustained critical and commercial success.

Under Cannon’s leadership, Whiskey Myers has cultivated a dedicated fanbase, achieving milestones that include millions of streams across platforms and consistently selling out shows on their tours. Looking ahead, Cody Cannon and Whiskey Myers are set to release their highly anticipated new album, ‘Whomp Whack Thunder,’ in September 2025, continuing their legacy of impactful and authentic rock and country music.
