Beverly Hills Tavern presents:Cody Tyler and his Band
You could call Cody Tyler “red dirt country,” but the rocky soil in coal country and the rust belt, where his family has been rooted for centuries, is a few shades darker. The songs on the band's award-winning debut album, Stare Your Demons Down, are the product of Cody's musings while hunting and hiking deep in the Pennsylvania wilderness.
Hailing from the foothills of Appalachia, Cody is an old soul, drawing heavy influence from the likes of Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, The Allman Brothers Band, Sturgill Simpson, and more. Together with his band, Cody’s wide-ranging voice and guitar sport a multigenerational road-tested sound.
The band consists of six-string prodigy Raif Groves on lead guitar, laid back and rock-steady drummer Gavin Orth, and groove-oriented and precise fretless bassist Sean Grahn. Together, Cody and the band are able to bend genres and include elements of bluegrass and southern rock in their unique coal country sound with a rust belt attitude that Cody calls “Black Dirt Country.”
Cody Tyler’s debut album, Stare Your Demons Down, was recorded with Jeff McKinnon at Think Loud Studios in York, PA, and Full Tilt Productions in Mechanicsburg, PA. Mastered by Grammy-winner Pete Lyman (Chris Stapleton, Sturgill Simpson, Tyler Childers) at Infrasonic Mastering in Nashville, TN, Cody paints a picture of the album’s sound as “dusty like the coal mines and rusty like the steel mills. It’s soulful and bluesy country for folks that want to kick up their boots.”
In 2023, Stare Your Demons Down earned the band accolades for Album of the Year and Best Country Band at the 4th Annual Central Pennsylvania Music Awards.
Cody and the band have opened for numerous national touring acts, including Charles Wesley Godwin, Silverada, Cole Swindell, Parmalee, Jason Eady, Creed Fisher, Jason Scott & the High Heat, Gabby Barrett, Conner Smith, Courtney Patton, Alex Williams, Ellis Bullard, Justin Clyde Williams, Drew Baldridge, Josh Ross, Dallas Moore, and more.
