Multi-Platinum
selling artist Cody Johnson and Mexican singer-songwriter Carín León
have released a collaboration today, “She Hurts Like Tequila.”
The
song is available across all digital platforms HERE. (preferred music platform) or below
Cody
discovered Carín’s music more than a year ago and was so intrigued
with the lyrics, melodies and his outstanding voice that it prompted an
invitation to write together. Those plans led to meeting up in Las Vegas
where they were also joined by co-writers Trent Willmon, Johan Sotelo,
and Orlando Aispuro Meneses. “She Hurts Like Tequila” came out of
that session and they were joined with co-writers Trent Willmon, Johan Sotelo,
and Orlando Aispuro Meneses.
Watch as
Cody and Carín talk about discovering each other’s music, the writing
session and the tequila that may have been involved.
The
new song comes on the heels of Cody’s highly successful, two-week #1 single
“I’m Gonna Love You” with Carrie Underwood. The monster hit became the 4th #1
single of Cody’s career and his second double week #1. Yesterday Cody
received seven nominations this morning for the upcoming 60th Academy of
Country Music Awards. Entertainer of the Year, Male Artist of the Year, Song of
the Year (“Dirt Cheap”), Single of the Year (“Dirt Cheap”), Music Event of the
Year (“I’m Gonna Love You” with Carrie Underwood) and two nominations in the
Visual Media category for “Dirt Cheap” and “I’m Gonna Love You.” The May 8th show
will be hosted by Reba McEntire and returns exclusively on Prime Video live
from Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, TX, airing 8 p.m. EDT / 7 p.m. CDT / 5
p.m. PDT. Cody wraps up his overseas tour dates this weekend in Australia
and will resume his Leather Deluxe Tour on April 25 & 26 at the CAJUNDOME
in Lafayette, LA.
