“It’s not often that I run across a musician like Cody. His charming personality and virtuosity on both bass and guitar should serve him well. I look forward to watching his career blossom. Cody is becoming a world class musician of the highest order!”  ~ Grammy winning guitarist Al Petteway

 

When Cody Wright first got his hands on a guitar, he initially turned to hard rock and metal for inspiration, traveling down the crossroads of the blues before moving on to fusion, jazz, and acoustic music. Technical excellence was always an aspiration of Wright's, along with melodies found early on in video games and television shows.

Cody's electric guitar playing draws from influences ranging from rock and metal players such as Shawn Lane and Nuno Bettencourt to bluesmen such as Stevie Ray Vaughan and Scott Henderson, to jazz and experimental artists like Stanley Jordan and Regi Wooten.
