About Cody Jinks
Cody Jinks is an outlaw country artist from Seymour, Texas who built his following the hard way—years of relentless touring before landing on most people's radar. He's known for a gritty, unpolished approach to country that feels more like something your uncle would play at a backyard barbecue than something built for radio. His lyrics tend toward the working-class and the reflective, dealing with drinking, faith, relationships falling apart, and the kind of self-examination that comes at 2 AM. Songs like 'Must Be Doing Something Right' and 'I'm Not The Devil' showcase his ability to write hooks that stick without sounding slick. Jinks has maintained creative independence largely by staying off major label deals and leveraging direct-to-fan relationships, which has earned him a fiercely loyal audience that actually shows up. His catalog spans albums like The Burning Hell and Lifers, both of which solidified his position as a genuine voice in modern country rather than another polished imitation.
Cody Jinks shows draw crowds that actually know the words. The energy is more sing-along intensity than arena enthusiasm—people care about being there, not performing their attendance on social media. He plays tight, doesn't waste time between songs, and the room gets noticeably quieter during the slower tracks because nobody wants to miss anything.
Known for Loud and Heavy, Must Be Doing Something Right, I'm Not The Devil, Hippies and Cowboys, She's Got the Honey
Cody Jinks + Austin
Cody Jinks played Round Rock Amp in Austin on April 2, 2022, running through a 22-song set that was heavy on the deep cuts. Mamma Song opened, and Lifers followed right after -- a statement of intent. David and Must Be the Whiskey held the early set together, while deeper tracks like Tell'em What It's Like, Big Last Name, and Shoulders showed up mid-set. I Don't Trust My Memories Anymore was a welcome surprise. He covered Learn to Fly and Like a Hurricane back-to-back, which is a range flex. Hippies and Cowboys into All It Cost Me Was Everything into Loud & Heavy closed things out.

Live Music in Austin
Austin's country music world has fractured into a lot of directions—there's the outlaw revival, the pop-country contingent, and then there's the working-class country that doesn't need Nashville validation. Cody Jinks lives in that last category: real country music from someone who actually sounds like he means it. Austin gets that.
Austin road trip to see Cody Jinks?
Stay in East Austin, where you'll find better restaurants and a neighborhood that actually feels alive. Dinner at Suerte—confident, creative food in a space that doesn't try too hard. During the day, wander the galleries and vintage shops along East 6th, or head to Zilker Park to sit with a coffee and watch Austin be itself. If you've got time, catch live music at Mohawk or Hotel Vegas—smaller rooms where you can see how Austin's songwriting community actually operates. The city's best asset isn't any single thing; it's the density of good people doing interesting work.
