It was wonderful to catch up to The Kody Norris Band to talk about them winning seven SPBGMA awards. The Kody Norris Show band members are Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris, Kody Norris, Josiah Tyree and Charlie Lowman.
The band brought home trophies for Entertainer of the Year, Instrumental Group of the Year, Album of the Year, Song of the Year, and Band (Overall) of the Year. Adding to the wins, Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris was named Fiddle Performer of the Year and Josiah Tyree won Banjo Performer of the Year. This year’s awards were held on Saturday, January 27th, at the Sheraton Music City Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee.
Of the twelve songs included on The Kody Norris Show’s latest album, Rhinestone Revival, four are penned by frontman Kody Norris: Baltimore I’m Leaving, Please Tell Me Why, Gotta Get My Baby Back, and their latest single, Fiddler's Rock. Last October, the first single, Mountain Rosalie, was released along with an accompanying lyric video. Check it out here:

New elements to Rhinestone Revival include a track sung by Kody's fiddling "sweetie" Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris, who steps out on Endless Highway, a tune Alison Krauss made famous in 1990. In addition, the band's banjo ace, Josiah Tyree takes the lead on their current single, I Call Her Sunshine. Charlie Lowman rounds out the group, keeping perfect time on bass.
The Kody Norris Show continues bringing bluegrass music to both core fans of the genre and new audiences. They are a youthful voice in bluegrass music, and insiders have awarded them multiple IBMA & SPBGMA Nominations and wins, including Entertainer of the Year, Instrumental Group of the Year, Guitar Performer of the Year for Kody Norris, Fiddler of the Year for Mary Rachel Nalley-Norris, and Banjo Performer of the Year for Josiah Tyree. The Kody Norris Show’s album All Suited Up (2021) charted at #7, and Rhinestone Revival (2023) at #8 on the Billboard charts. Their trademarked high-energy style delivers an unrivaled live show experience. In 2023, the band made their Ryman Auditorium, Grand Ole Opry, and live SiriusXM debuts. Rife with rhinestones, loaded with laughs, and a heaping helping of high-powered traditional music, The Kody Norris Show is truly one of a kind. For more information, visit thekodynorrisshow.com.
