Who are Cody Johnson's kids?

Cody and Brandi Johnson are the proud parents of two daughters, Clara and Cori. The couple has been together for over a decade, and their relationship remains as strong as ever. In an interview with People magazine in August 2018, Cody shared some insights into whether his children might follow in his musical footsteps:

My kids love to grab their little microphones and guitars and pretend they're performing just like me. They'll come up to me and say, "Dad, I'm doing what you do!"

Despite their interest in music, Cody emphasizes that he wants his daughters to follow their own passions, whatever they may be. He explained:

My kids don't have to pursue music if it's not their dream. I want them to chase their own aspirations with the same passion I've put into my career. I'll support them every step of the way.

Clara Mae Johnson, 10

Clara Mae, Cody and Brandi's first child, was born in 2015. During a 2022 interview with People, Cody discussed how he shows his kids the dual sides of his career:

My kids see me working with cows and horses on the ranch, but they also know I have this other exciting career in music. It's important for them to understand both parts of who I am.

Cody also shared how he instills a strong work ethic in his daughters:

I always tell my kids that nothing worth having comes easy. If you want something, you have to work hard for it, and that's a lesson I try to teach them every day.

Clara Mae even inspired one of Cody's songs, "I Know My Way Back," which he wrote with her in mind. He revealed during an appearance on Radio Texas, Live!:

I wanted to write a love song that felt different from the ones I'd written before. Instead of focusing on my wife, this time I thought about my daughter and what it means to be a father.

Cori Johnson, 8

Cori joined the Johnson family in 2017, bringing even more joy to Cody and Brandi's lives. In a 2018 interview with People, Cody talked about the unique experience of having his family join him on tour:

I'm incredibly lucky that my wife and kids can come with me on the tour bus. It might seem unusual to have diapers in a millionaire's bus, but that's just how it is for us. Our bus has basically become a million-dollar daycare center!

Like her sister, Cori has also inspired one of Cody's songs. "God Bless the Boy" tells the story of the person who will one day capture Cori's heart, showcasing Cody's deep love and protective instincts as a father.
