The Departed

Anyone who's turned on the news in the last couple of years has an idea of what Canada intended when he wrote "Unglued."

The Departed has a new lead singer...at least for a new surprise album called 'In Retrospect', which features Cody Canada's longtime friend and bass player Jeremy Plato!

This Thursday how about we throwback to the time Cody Canada joined us on Radio Texas, LIVE! to debut tracks off of the Departed's, then, brand new album "HippieLovePunk." Enjoy.

Fresh off its debut on January 13th, the new album HippieLovePunk from Cody Canada & the Departed is getting some impressive reviews from Rolling Stone, Texas Monthly and other publications.  The album debuted #1 on Amazon's "Country" and "Rock" MP3 Album chart. ...

Last week (1/13) HippieLovePunk from Cody Canada and the Departed hit stores and iTunes, the band's third album (This is Indian Land, Adventus). Canada called in to talk with us about the new album, MusicFest 2015 highlights, his brother-in-law Wade Bowen's performance on Conan, American Aquarium and so much more.

// Post by Cody Canada. I've known Cody Canada, in a professional capacity, for around three years. But I've been a fan of his for more than 10 years longer than that. I actually purchased Ragweed's Soul Gravy, in Baghdad, back in 2004.

From his home in New Braunfels, TX, Cody Canada and his dog, Marvin, took to social media, today, to thank fans for their continued support. He also says to keep comin' out to shows, and to expect a new Departed album very soon.

I haven't done a music video post in a while so it feels long overdue.  You've heard the song Prayer For The Lonely by The Departed and now they have a video, check it out.

Last week we didn't have any new music added to the playlist but this week we have made a few changes.  Check out the new songs, two debut singles and one returning artist.

The New Music Showdown this week brings two of the Concho Valley's top notch favorites.  The Departed and JB and the Moonshine Band go mono e mono, only you can decide who is victorious.
