Coffee, Country & Cody is the long-running morning show on Nashville's WSM Radio, broadcasting over the air on 650 AM and worldwide on the WSM App and at WSMRadio.com. Bill Cody, who has hosted the show for more than 30 years, leads the team along with his co-host, Amazon Music's Kelly Sutton, a fixture on Nashville radio and television since 2001. Producer Charlie Mattos and content coordinator Annie Ney round out the crew.
WSM Radio made its mark on country music history on October 5, 1925. It was on that day that the station hit the airwaves. On November 28 of that same year, the station birthed the WSM Barn Dance, soon renamed the Grand Ole Opry, which remains the world's longest-running radio show. Since its very beginning, WSM has (and continues to) broadcast every Opry show live, along with a daily programming lineup of talented hosts presenting classic and contemporary country music.
