Cody Blakely

First show with my new band @baddreamhouse780 is coming up soon, followed by another in June. Give us a follow and we will update you when we have a 3rd show. Also, we decided to record some tracks next week. How many you ask? Great question. @oldwives780 are also working on our new record which is going great. We have some shows coming up too. There's a new guy who is also named Cody, but for confusion purposes he is called Tall Cody. I'll give you a guess on what I am called.

No hype. All heart. OUT NOW 💿 Stoked to drop our three-song EP on ya today🪾Check it on Bandcamp, Spotify and anywhere else you get your digital fix. If you’re into it, we’d be incredibly grateful if you told two friends 🙏 #diy Track: “Winfield” Produced and mixed by: @halfstack_ @fatherbobbytownsend Mastered by: @sturules604 @raincitymastering Artwork: @sturules604 @tybed Band: @sturules604 @alsoknownaskiller @nick.kouremenos @tybed #newmusic #newhardcore #newemo #newpunk

You know what they say: big tires + big jacket = big year. 2025 brought us funny photos of Gordon, and I found out what it would look like if Rivers Cuomo and I had a baby. It has been nice. In the music department it ruled.

Thanks to everyone who worked with me, you are all wonderful. 2026 is booking fast so get at me to make some tunes!

For years I've said that @midnightpeg is arguably the best band in Canada. It rarely comes up organically. I am often asked a question such as "Do you want fries with that?" and my response is usually "Midnight Peg is arguably the best band in Canada. Also, yes please." They are that good. Anyways, their new record is out today which was recorded by Rob Lawless. I had the luck of mixing the bugger and my good bud @sturules604 mastered it. Check it out.

Big shout out to Dual Nature on their release Content, the recognition is well deserved! Recorded and mixed by myself and @terrytran mastered. We just tracked 4 new songs last weekend and those songs also rule! @dualnature780

2024 ruled. It was the busiest year I ever had by a long shot. I worked on over 40 projects and did over 175 songs. Also consumed a record amount of caffeine. That's a wrap on recording sessions for the year, I'm spending the rest of the year catching up on mixing. Thanks to The Murms, Cold Like Penguins, King Theory, Dual Nature, Spud McKenzies, The Smelters, Mellow The Lion, Trashed Ambulance, Counterfeit Jeans, Mom Weed, Regal Foul, Fire Next Time, King Thief, Reign of Error, Kyle Roder, Alexi Can't Hang, Reform, Old Wives, Midnight Peg, Fools, Carpoolers, Josh Smeenk, Cinch, When April Met July, Nicolas Rage, Forester, Loser Points, Owen Lukawesky, SoftKlub, Paint Bomb, Dorjay, Redhi, Garrett Dale, Thy Mistrel, Super Ego, Sean Merrick, Forrest Lor, Ronan Freed, Samuel Mize, Permission Slip, Brandy Fitzgerald, Grant Mendoza, and Rudder. Thank you to my good pal Terry Tran and @theaudiodepartment for letting me set up shop there, it's such a great room and I'm very lucky to be apart of the team! Big shout out to the best assistant in the world Graham Strach. Thanks to my bandmates Shaun, Darren, Ryan, Jed, Tyler, and Spencer for a great year. These guys are some of my best buds in the world and if it wasn't for them I'd probably not be playing in bands. 2025 is booking up quick and I am booking into March currently so if you are looking to lay down some tracks get at me!

Hinton ruled! Big thanks to my dear friends in @gnosticfever for taking really inspiring photos of me.

My pal Garrett of @redcityradio and I had a great time laying down some tracks last night. We might have solved music!

Emily is now my ex-girlfriend. In other news, I'm going to be a Mrs!

Chrispy from @realsickies and I had a great time chatting with the fantastic Tara McCarthy from @cbcradiocanada about a project we worked on together that will be out soon. It went so well that we decided to snap a real nice photo.

Great day helping my new pal Nick Jonas lay down some audio at @theaudiodepartment yesterday. It was a great time and he's a great dude. I am aware I need smiling lessons.
