24-Seven (Anfianta "AJ" Hodges) is a modern country artist carving out a distinct lane by blending the grit of country-rock with the smooth, emotive depths of country-soul. Originally hailing from Savannah, Georgia, and now residing and operating out of Southern Maryland, his music carries an authentic Southern foundation paired with a sharp, modern edge. He brought this signature sound to life on his debut album, Drop It in Gear, which was recorded at Famco Studios and released in May 2026. ​A certified pipe welder and steamfitter by trade, 24-Seven's music is deeply rooted in the blue-collar work ethic and authentic lifestyle that defines the genre. Balancing his time between running a mechanical business, coaching youth baseball and football, and raising his family, he channels real-life passion and grit directly into his songwriting. Following up on his album release, 24-Seven is continuing to build his momentum with his latest single, "Riding on a Memory". Never one to slow down, he is already back in the studio crafting his highly anticipated concept sophomore album, Love and Party / Party and Love—a project built on a yin-yang balance of heartfelt soul and high-octane rock.
