Grammy-nominated Roots/Blues/Rock musician Cody Dickinson has announced his solo album, Homemade, out June 21st, 2024 on Strong Place Music. Known for his role as founding member and drummer of North Mississippi Allstars, Dickinson moves in front of the drum kit on Homemade as he handles all aspects of the album.

The first track off Homemade is “Walk Right In,” which serves as an introduction to Dickinson’s new chapter in life as a touring musician who now has a family. It features Tikyra Jackson of Southern Avenue.

Dickinson shares:

It captures the energy of married life coupled with performing live music. It is a visceral cry for the committed.

Homemade is essentially a love letter to Dickinson’s family. After a lifetime on the road, Dickinson took some downtime to write Homemade at home in Mississippi.

Dickinson has headed back out on the road with the North Mississippi Allstars, and solo shows will be announced soon.

As a founding member of North Mississippi Allstars, Dickinson has earned five Grammy nominations, including a nod for the band’s 2023 album Set Sail. He earned a Blues Music Award nomination for Best Drummer this year as well. Take Me to the River: Memphis and Take Me to the River: New Orleans, is an award-winning documentary series Dickinson co-produced/created, which showcased brand new musical collaborations from multiple generations of award-winning Memphis and Mississippi Delta musicians.
