On December 7, fans of the Texas troubadour we’ve all come to know as the King of Country Music got just one more taste of why he richly deserves that title. George Strait released a new track entitled “Código,” celebrating the namesake tequila brand in which he’s a partner and fan. That news had more than a few fans toasting this latest creation.
Co-writing the song with his son Bubba as well as his long-time friend and collaborator Dean Dillon, Strait incorporated his traditional vibe with the sounds of an accordion and fiddle to produce a southwestern swinger his country fans will love. It’s the kind of song you could picture yourself singing along to (loudly) with friends, after a couple of rounds of the drink itself! Give a listen to the new song below, released on the George Strait YouTube channel via Universal Music Group.
