For country musician Cody Johnson, 2018 is already shaping up to be an exciting year, especially after being tapped to perform at RodeoHouston.
Johnson was the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo’s special guest at tonight’s announcement of this year’s lineup of performers.
“My phone is blowing up in my pocket. I’ve got texts from people I haven’t heard from in years. Everyone just saw this,” Johnson said. “I tried to put my phone down and walk away, but I don’t think there’ll be any walking away from this one tonight.”
While the stage at NRG Stadium will be different this year, Johnson and his band got a little taste of performing for all of Houston in 2017.
Johnson stepped up to the mic when Old Dominion had to bow out after a death in the family.
“We had some really great accomplishments last year, but this one stood out above all else,” Johnson said. “Now to be invited back, it makes us feel like we really left our mark and we did our job, so it’s a great sense of accomplishment.”
