Looking Good
Cody ChestnuTT knows exactly who he is and what music he wants to make. Eschewing the typical routes musicians make to get their sound heard, ChestnuTT has been known to give his music to strangers in shopping malls - such is the passion he has for his work.
Creating tracks that brilliantly mix funk, blues and hip hop, comparisons to Prince and even Jimi Hendrix have followed him with each new release. He’s arguably most famous for The Seed 2.0, The Roots’ remake of his song that appeared on their celebrated Phrenology album. However you can’t ignore his solo work, albums like The Headphone Masterpiece recorded in The Sonic Promiseland (otherwise known as ChestnuTT’s bedroom) and most recent release Landing on A Hundred.
The neo-soul hero from Atlanta, Georgia will be bringing his audacious performances and trademark headgear to give 6 Music a set they will never forget.
