LONDON, U.K. – (2 May, 2025) – Rising independent country artist Cody Pennington has today released ‘Make A Right’, available to stream/download worldwide here. The song showcases the versatility of Pennington’s rich storytelling, which will be on full display throughout his upcoming sold-out European leg of his international tour – kicking off tomorrow in Amsterdam. Due to incredible demand, Pennington has announced four additional UK dates in June (all dates below) – tickets on sale here.
Commenting on ‘Make A Right’, Cody shares, “this is a special song about not getting stuck in a rut, and how a small decision could completely change your life. I hope y’all like this one, too.”
Pennington’s life journey has fueled his rapidly growing presence as a proudly independent artist in country music worldwide. Raised in a trailer park in East Nashville, Cody experienced humble beginnings where cheap guitars—and a family fond of music—became his main outlet. He taught himself to sing and play throughout high school and continued honing his craft during his enlistment in the US Air Force, booking and performing tours in countries such as Turkey, Greece, and the UK.
Cody ventured to Australia following his military service, and even played music on cruise ships before taking a brief detour to earn a law degree. Ultimately, his true calling proved irresistible: country music. Since then, Cody has sold over 60,000 tickets, released his debut EP, Downtown – amassing over 2.5 million streams worldwide and reaching #1 on the iTunes Country Chart – and the follow-up release, Cowboy Enough (2024).
His live performances channel the heart and soul of his Nashville roots while blending original country tunes with chart-topping hits, creating an unforgettable experience for music lovers around the globe.
With his independent spirit and relentless drive, Cody Pennington continues to chart his own course in the country music scene—proving that the journey is just as exciting as the destination.
