At just 24, Cody Matlock is already hailed as a widely-popular, seasoned veteran in
Atlanta’s live music community having paid his dues gigging in the blues scene for
nearly a decade.
Increasingly a fixture at some of the Georgia’s most iconic blues halls, the soul
singer-songwriter grew up on stage at Northside Tavern, Blind Willie's, Fat
Matt's, Vinyl, Darwin's, and the the DeSoto Theater (Rome), lighting up performances with a range of songs from graveyard blues
classics to 90s hits to soulful originals. No matter the genre, era, or style, Cody infuses
every song with a measure of soul, calling on influences like James Brown, Stevie
Wonder, Al Green, and Prince.
