Cody Johnson has been keeping fans on their toes with hints about his next album, and it’s finally official—he’ll be collaborating with country music heavyweights Luke Combs and Brothers Osborne. While the album’s title and release date remain under wraps, Johnson revealed it’s nearly complete, with recording sessions slated for January. Given the anticipation surrounding these collaborations, it seems he’s got something special in store for fans in 2026.
On a personal note, Johnson’s had quite a year, recovering from a burst eardrum that led to canceling several shows, including what could have been an unforgettable performance at the CMA Awards. Thankfully, he’s on the mend and aiming to return to the stage by February. With hopes of delivering a more “spicy” sound this time around, it seems Johnson is stepping up his game. It’s exciting to think about what the future holds—who knows what surprises these collaborations might bring?
