Route404 is an independent country songwriting project created by Dustin Cosby, rooted in the conviction that country music is at its best when it reflects the lives we're actually living.
Rooted in emotionally honest storytelling, Route404 explores love that survives real life: the kind built through tension, forgiveness, gratitude, and daily choice.
The songs center on commitment over perfection, vulnerability over bravado, and the quiet strength found in knowing your worth. With imagery drawn from backroads, porch lights, and long country drives, each lyric captures the steady presence of a love that shows up, not just in words, but in action.
Rather than chasing trends or flash, Route404 leans into character, loyalty, and emotional depth, pairing traditional country themes with modern production. The result is music that feels both rooted and current: grounded in familiar landscapes yet written for listeners who value authenticity over noise.
At its core, Route404 is about honoring real life: the struggles, the loyalty, the perseverance, and a steady kind of love that doesn't always shout but always shows up.
