SUMMARY:Kody West w/ Special Guest (TBA)
DESCRIPTION:Texas country grit meets rock-and-roll energy. Kody West brings his band to The Bend Theater on Friday\, November 13 — and this is a show you’ll want to see up close. \nGet Tickets \nWho Is Kody West?\nKody West grew up in Denton\, Texas\, listening to country legends like Johnny Cash. He picked up a guitar at nine years old and mostly taught himself to play. His first gigs weren’t fancy. He played taco shops and any bar with a patio that would give him a couple of hours. \nThen he did something smart. He took a job as tour manager for Texas artist Dalton Domino. He learned the music business from the inside — booking shows\, loading gear\, and watching how it’s done. Soon he was opening the shows himself. In 2016\, he released his first EP\, Higher Ground\, and fans took notice fast. \nHis 2017 debut album\, Green\, put him on the map alongside Texas country names like Koe Wetzel and Flatland Cavalry. Since then\, he’s released the albums Overgrown and Circles\, recorded a live album at the world-famous Billy Bob’s Texas\, and shared stages with Whiskey Myers\, Koe Wetzel\, and Charlie Robison. He and his band have played more than 400 shows across the country\, including plenty of sold-out rooms. \nHis sound mixes classic country storytelling with the crunch of late-’90s rock. One boot in the red dirt\, the other on a fuzz pedal. His songs rack up millions of streams because they feel real — songs about hard work\, heartbreak\, and hanging on. \n“We’ve been plugging away\, just playing shows ever since — just slowly growing.” — Kody West\nHear the New Single: “Oxygen”\nKody’s new single “Oxygen” is out now\, and it shows exactly where his sound is headed — big hooks\, raw vocals\, and lyrics that hit home. Watch the official music video below\, then picture hearing it live from just a few feet away. \n\n    \n  \nKody West — “Oxygen” (Official Music Video) \nTwo Fan Favorites You’ll Hear Live\n“Green”\nThe title track from his debut album. Fans know it by its chorus — “together but alone” — and they sing that line back at him at every show. It’s the song that turned listeners into a fan community. \n\n    \n  \nKody West — “Green” (from the album Green) \n“Million Miles”\nDark\, driving\, and built for a live crowd. “Million Miles” is one of his most-streamed songs and a highlight of every show. \n\n    \n  \nKody West — “Million Miles” (from the album Green) \nDo Your Homework Before the Show\nWant to sing along on November 13? Spotify has an official playlist called “This Is Kody West” with all his essential tracks in one place. Give it a few spins on your way to work this week. Find it on Kody West’s Spotify page\, along with the new single “Oxygen” and his full catalog. \nWhy You Should Be There\nKody West built his career on live shows. He’s played arenas and festival stages\, but a 360-seat room is where this music hits hardest. Every seat at The Bend is close to the stage. You’ll feel the drums in your chest and catch every word. \nHe’s also known as one of the most fan-friendly artists in Texas music. He’s the kind of performer who sticks around after the show to shake hands and say thanks. This is your chance to catch a rising star in an intimate room — before the venues get bigger and the tickets get harder to grab. \n\nShow Details\n\nDate Friday\, November 13\nShow 8:00 PM\nSeating General admission — arrive early for the best spot\nBar Full bar for all your beverage needs\nVenue The Bend Theater\, 125 N.
