Cody Johnson

On the year-end chart for 'Billboard''s Country Digital Songs, Hayes proved that he's no one-hit wonder.

A lot of heavy hitters -- and a couple of surprise successes -- dominated the country radio airwaves in 2022.

Johnson explains why he never goes into the studio trying to chase radio success, and shares why he's so proud of his new live album.

His nomination was the cherry on top of a massive year.

His energetic live delivery takes it to a new level.

Whenever Johnson plays to a rodeo crowd, he knows he's performing for a home team.

She chose the song for a recent Kellyoke cover.

"There is nothing I enjoy more than getting to play live shows with this band."

The 2022 AMAs will take place live from Microsoft Theater at L.A. Live in Los Angeles on Nov. 20 at 8PM ET.
