Cody Tyler & Gypsy Convoy will perform during the City of Salisbury's Friday Night Live concert series on Aug. 2 at the Pohanka Riverwalk Amphitheater. The series is free to attend.
You could call Cody Tyler & Gypsy Convoy “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 deep in the Pennsylvania wilderness. At 29 years old, his musical journey has just begun, but his yearning to travel the open road with his songs written from his tree stand have already taken him across the United States as a solo artist.
