NASHVILLE, TENN. (SEPTEMBER 30, 2022) GRAMMY®-nominated worship leader Cody Carnes has released his first-ever live recorded album, God is Good!, available now. The 12-track album was captured this summer during a special two-night worship event at Belonging Co. in Nashville. Special guests on the project include Kari Jobe, Natalie Grant, and Benjamin William Hastings. The album also currently has three songs simultaneously on radio: "Ain't Nobody," (Christian Radio), "Good" and "Take You At Your Word" currently heard on Air1. 
 
"I am so excited to be releasing my first live album," shares Cody Carnes. "This night ended up being one of the best nights of my life.. so many of my favorite people worshipping together in one room. These moments are full of the joy and hope of Jesus.. they are a celebration of the goodness of God. I’m praying you also experience that when you listen!"
 
Celebrating the album, live performance videos from the recording have been released leading up to today's release for the songs "Forever & Amen" with Kari Jobe, "Good (Can't Be Anything Else)," and the radio single "Ain't Nobody." Today the live video for "Take You At Your Word" (with Benjamin Williams Hastings) debuts on YouTube. Next week each day a new video will premiere leading up to an event on Friday, October 7th at 7 PM Central for the full album live stream showcasing all 12 performances on Facebook and YouTube.
