IKERD AT THE OPERA HOUSE
“Cody Ikerd and the Sidewinders will be performing live at the Mitchell Opera House on January 18th at 7 PM! He has played the drums for 12 years in a variety of different bands and in the past 6 years, also picked up the guitar. There is just something about the old country songs that Cody loves and is drawn to. He strives for the Merle Haggard, Hank Jr., Johnny Paycheck, Jamey Johnson, and Waylon Jennings types of music. The group has had the opportunity to open for the Kentucky Headhunters as well as Nashville’s Mark Collie. This band is one to see!”
