TREY HENSLEY
GRAMMY® Award-winning singer/songwriter/guitarist and 2023 IBMA (International Bluegrass Music Association) Guitar Player of the Year Trey Hensley has been called a “musical phenom” by NPR, “a guitar-slinging superhero” by Bluegrass Today and “Nashville’s hottest young player” by Acoustic Guitar magazine. A multiple GRAMMY® nominee widely recognized for his world class musicianship and guitar prowess (Rolling Stone observes “Trey Hensley shreds”), Hensley was invited to perform alongside many of the world’s greatest guitarists at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Guitar Festival 2023 in Los Angeles. That same year, Hensley was a featured player in a Guitar World magazine piece titled “6 Blazing Bluegrass Guitarists You Need To Hear.” But with Hensley it’s not just the guitar that does the talking—he’s also well known for his rich, soulful and powerful baritone vocals with echoes of Merle Haggard and George Jones (as Holler put it: “Hensley possesses a strikingly resonate, emotional voice, one that makes him a potent singer outside of his superb finger-picking ability.”)
For the past decade, Hensley has been one half of the award-winning, critically-acclaimed powerhouse duo Rob Ickes & Trey Hensley. With a musical DNA made up of an impressive, eclectic melting pot of artists such as The Allman Brothers Band, Merle Haggard, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Tom Petty, Jimi Hendrix, and The Band, it’s no surprise that Hensley’s impressive list of collaborations includes a diverse list of extraordinary artists: Johnny Cash, Vince Gill, Taj Mahal, Tommy Emmanuel, Marty Stuart, Earl Scruggs, Dolly Parton, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Little Feat, Old Crow Medicine Show, Stone Temple Pilots, Steve Vai, Molly Tuttle, Leftover Salmon and many more. Hensley received his first GRAMMY® Award at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards in L.A. on Feb. 2, 2025 as a member of The Taj Mahal Sextet, whose recording Swingin’ Live At The Church In Tulsa won in the Best Traditional Blues Album category. Hensley’s other-worldly guitar playing has resulted in earning more than a third of a million social media followers while attracting many legendary guitar players as fans, including former Deep Purple founding guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers’ Mike Campbell and Tommy Emmanuel, CGP.
