Local Artist Spotlight – Cody Lovaas

If anyone is able to bring the beach into the studio, it’s singer-songwriter Cody Lovaas. With his guitar in one hand and surfboard in the other, Cody puts his musical talent and humble beginnings into everything he does. After being discovered at a coffee shop by Jason Mraz when he was only 14, Mraz invited Lovaas to open his 2015 North American Tour soon after. Lovaas’ recognition grew quickly as he won an award for Best New Artist at the 2014 San Diego Music Awards, and was nominated for Best Singer-Songwriter the next year. Cody has also supported other artists on the road such as Ziggy Marley, Switchfoot, and Donavon Frankenreiter!
