Carrie Underwood had nothing but praise for Cody Johnson after joining him as a surprise guest at his Nashville show on Saturday night (Feb. 15).
“Fun with friends! ‘Twas a pleasure joining [Cody Johnson] on stage Saturday night,” she writes in a social media post, sharing two snapshots from the moment.
Underwood was beyond impressed by Johnson’s skills as a performer — and with the fans that turned out to see his show, too.
“He’s the real deal, folks!” she adds. “Such a great show and what a LOUD crowd!”
Underwood and Johnson sang their duet “I’m Gonna Love You” during Johnson’s show, which marked night two of his Leather Tour’s back-to-back set of stops in Nashville.
