Beloved Country Star, With 5 No. 1 Hits, Releases New Song
Cody Johnson is keeping the momentum going after dropping a special treat for fans.
Amid his highly anticipated Live 2026 tour, the country star marks another exciting chapter through his newly released song.
The award-winning musician with five No. 1 hits under his belt proudly unveiled his brand-new single, "Horseback."
Written by Randy Montana, Wyatt McCubbin and Paul Sikes, Johnson's new song is part of his upcoming studio album Banks of the Trinity.
In an Instagram update, the singer-songwriter described the track as a playful contrast to a typical breakup song.
"Most breakup songs are about getting the girl back. This one's about getting the horse back. My new single, "Horseback," is out now. Listen to the link in bio," he captioned his post.
Johnson's announcement sparked excitement among fans, who welcomed the news with enthusiasm and anticipation for his new single.
"Thank you Cojo, you crushed this," one wrote.
"Can't wait to listen," a commenter added.
A fan hyped the country star's new song, noting, "Great Song!! You knocked it outta the park!!"
"Absolute banger. Love this guy," another said.
The same goes for a fan who commented, "I know there's a bomb in this album. Just how many surprises do you have for us?"
Apart from the "'Til You Can't" hitmaker's announcement, Johnson is currently on the road for his U.S. and Canada tour.
The 38-year-old singer, known for his Grammy-winning tracks like "Dirt Cheap," "Human," "On My Way to You," "Dear Rodeo" and more, kicked off his 25-date run in March in Arizona, followed by a series of performances in Missouri, South Dakota, South Carolina, Iowa, Michigan and more before concluding in September in Canada.
