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

Live Music in Minneapolis

Minneapolis has always been more alt-rock and hip-hop territory than country, but there's a real appetite for the harder edges of Americana and outlaw country here. Venues like the Fillmore and First Avenue have started booking more country acts willing to push against the mainstream polish. Jinks, with his unpolished delivery and working-class authenticity, fits that mold better than the radio-friendly stuff.

Minneapolis road trip to see Cody Jinks?

Stay in the Northeast Minneapolis arts district—it's where the city's creative energy actually lives, with galleries, vintage shops, and the Mississippi River nearby. Eat at Café Alma in the same neighborhood for restrained, high-quality Italian cooking. Spend an afternoon at the Walker Art Center, which sits on a rise overlooking downtown and has genuine landscape appeal. Grab coffee at Spyhouse, a roaster that takes itself seriously without the performative nonsense. The Stone Arch Bridge is worth a walk if the weather cooperates.
