Commander Cody will be showing his paintings at the Sausalito Art Festival in Sausalito, CA Aug 29-Sept 2. This is the largest fine art juried showing in America.

Commander Cody: "Dopers, Drunks, and Everyday Losers"
Ever since his wild early days as a front man for the Lost Planet Airmen, the Old Commander has plowed his own path through the fields of the American music scene as one of its few truly unique and iconoclastic figures. His special blend of old-time rock 'n' roll, redneck country, boogie woogie and swing has virtually defined American roots music. Finding the Commander "lost in the ozone" once more, this latest album will delight old and new fans alike with its mix of new songs and classics from the Cody catalog.
