In the wake of Cross Canadian Ragweed s decision to part ways, Cody Canada has resurfaced with an armament of musicians and a mission in mind. With his long time Ragweed bandmate, Jeremy Plato (bass), the two made a seamless transition into the world of The Departed, as in Cody Canada & The Departed.

Although The Departed is writing and will record original material, the band s first priority was getting into the studio and cutting the Oklahoma tribute album that Cody had been wanting to do for years. The result is This Is Indian Land. Cody Canada & the Departed is already making waves on the road. With the recording of the album behind them and a brand new year in front, the band has hit the road like only professionals know how to do.
