Industry entrepreneur Peyton Heben launches management company, Twenty-Two Entertainment, along with the signing of his flagship artist, Grindstone Records artist Cody Cozz. The announcement comes ahead of Cozz's upcoming single “I'm Just A Country Song” due out in June.

“I’m super excited to be officially launching this adventure in Nashville. Country music has played a big part in my life and I have a deep passion for finding artists that I believe in and helping them to achieve their goals in the industry,” expresses Heben. “I am a firm believer that artists should never be stripped of their creative freedom. Management is one of the most important roles in an artist’s career, so I created a company that allows me to work with artists who have similar goals, drive, and passion as me to advance careers to the next level.”

Heben first began building a name for himself as an entrepreneur in Music City by contributing to a well-known country publication and brand, Raised Rowdy.

A native of Colorado, the now Nashville-based country riser Cody Cozz is blazing a path throughout the town. As an artist under Craig Campbell's label, Grindstone Records, he released his first single “On My Way” which received notable attention from several editorial placements alongside features on CMT, Raised Rowdy, and All Country News.

“Super excited about this opportunity with Twenty-Two Entertainment, I haven’t met a guy who works harder in this industry and I’m very eager to grow together and build something incredible as all the greats have," tells Cody. "It’s rare to meet people with the same vision and work ethic, and I can’t wait to hit the ground running.”

“I met Cody back in August of 2022, about a month after I had gotten to town and was working in artist management. We clicked immediately and became good friends. One day in September 2022, Cody gave me a call and told me he felt I was best fit to represent him because we both believed in what each other was doing,” tells Heben. “It’s been a fun ride working with Cody for the past 7-8 months. We have worked incredibly hard together and have built a phenomenal team backing him and his career. I’m very excited to have officially signed him to my roster!”
