About Me


Born and raised in North Carolina, Jody got his first start singing Eagles songs in front of his third grade class. He parlayed his love for the spotlight into a modeling and acting career that spanned nearly ten years, appearing in ads for such designers as Armani, Levi’s, Wrangler and J Crew. He also starred in music videos for country music stars Leann Rimes and Jamie ONeal.
A few years later, Jody found himself living in a band rehearsal room in Los Angeles and writing songs about his roller coaster ride of life experiences. Lyrics like “I’ve got a suit case full of life and a gun shy heart that’s slow to heal”, live with you long after the band have left the stage.
The Jody Lee Petty Band has relocated back to the east coast and has opened for such acts as Rascal Flatts, Jason Aldean, Charlie Daniels Band, Marshall Tucker Band and many more. Their high-powered, high energy, southern fried brand of country music is winning fans the world over.
What people are saying about Jody Lee Petty;
“Country music just got dangerous and sexy again. With his unique blend of style, charisma and rich vocals, this southern boy has a very bright future ahead of him.” Krista Smith, West Coast editor, Vanity Fair Magazine
“Jody Lee Petty is the best country/southern rock front man since Ronnie Van Zant” Jon Ingles, DJ for allsouthernrock.com
“Jody Lee Petty has the complete dream country rock package; great music, great voice, great looks, great band and great stage presence. Jody Lee is a true star on the horizon.” Geoff Hughes, Mid-Atlantic Entertainment
“Thanks to Jody Lee Petty, my faith in the Country genre has been restored. He’s a country boy with a voice that comforts like a cool summer breeze, and lyrics that get right to the heart of the matter. So if you’ve never heard Country music, this is the place to start. And if for some reason you stopped listening to it… it’s time to listen again.” Rhonda Fletcher, Mayberry Magazine
