Raised in Michigan and now based in Nashville, GRAMMY Award-winning Billy Strings is known as one of music's most compelling artists. Most recently, he unveiled "California Sober," a collaboration with legendary artist Willie Nelson--his first release since partnering with venerable label, Reprise Records.
The collaboration follows Strings' most recent full-length album, Me/And/Dad, which was released last fall and features Strings alongside with his dad, Terry Barber. The product of a longtime dream, the record features new versions of fourteen bluegrass and country classics that the two have been playing together since Strings was a young child.
Since his 2017 debut, Strings has been awarded Best Bluegrass Album at the 63rd GRAMMY Awards, Artist of the Year at the 2022 and 2023 Americana Music Awards, Entertainer of the Year at the 2021, 2022 and 2023 International Bluegrass Music Awards, Best New Headliner at the 2022 Pollstar Awards, Breakthrough Artist of the Pandemic at the 2021 Pollstar Awards and has performed on the 64th GRAMMY Awards, "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert," "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," PBS' "Austin City Limits," "Bluegrass Underground" as well as countless sold-out tour dates world-wide.
Billy Strings is nominated for three awards at the 66th Annual GRAMMY Awards: Best Bluegrass Album (Me/And/Dad), Best American Roots Song ("California Sober" feat. Willie Nelson) and Best Country Duo/Group Performance ("High Note" with Dierks Bentley).
Three days with Billy Strings in St. Augie!! What else can I say but it was completely awesome with old and new friends
one the best live shows I've ever been to. His fans are some of the nicest people. High energy performance and lots of dancing crowds.
This is the most entertaining musical group I have ever seen. They continually surprise their audiences with new songs, covers, and arrangements. Must see!
Thunder! What more is there to say about once in a lifetime show.
A great evening of music from a phenomenal picker and his band. Hope to see them again soon.
Amazing show. Tickets were way too expensive but that seems to be the norm with everyone reselling.
One of the best shows I’ve attended. We didn’t stop dancing the whole time. That’s my measure of a great show. We love Billy Strings!
A friend and I saw Billy recently at the Enmark Arena in Savannah, GA. The venue is outstanding, with solid acoustics. Thee beer was pricey ($17.00 for a large can of Yuengling), but that's okay - I don't come to these things to save money, but to spend it. $90.00 for two t-shirts and a beer coozie. Billy and the crew played a solid set with one break. He had a fiddle player too, always a nice touch. I was hoping for more 3-4 minute Billy songs with 3 part harmony. Instead, we were treated to extended jam sessions, vocal-free. The crowd was eclectic with a lot of young (under 30) folks, who enjoyed this musical iteration. It felt a lot like a Grateful Dead concert. The smell of pot was in the air. All in all, a great time in a great town.
Great show as always ! Thanks Billy and his band , they are awesome
Billy Strings at Enmarket Arena in Savannah GA. Incredible show. Don’t miss this. He is the NEXT Great thing now. BMFS. He and the band play together to perfection. I would go again immediately!! Bill was a Thrill!!
Billy Strings and his band played some amazing bluegrass as well as some of his original songs. Sometimes though he would drift off into some kind of jazz, rock super jam leaving his band to sit and watch. While the effects pedal board made some cool sounds come out of his vintage Martins, I'd rather have them sound like C.F. Martin intended them to sound.
So much energy. “Running on Empty” was an outstanding cover. What a great time
If you haven’t seen this group of musicians yet, don’t walk , run to the next show !!
Venue was great, music was spectacular, great experience
WOW. This was two amazing performances. I am blessed to have witnessed this. I am hook line and sinkers to this band for now on. I could not hold still both shows. Thank you Billy Srings!! I will see you again very soon
BMFS- all I can say is wow!!!!. Stepped up the lights and production this year. What a show, You go Billy!!!!
Thank you 🙏 Billy for a hell of a show. Keep up the great work
Sick sick sick if you were there you allready know ive never been so far out there in a song! Ive seen Billy Strings quite few times and he Never dissapoints but sat night he was on fire that version of all fall down was the sickest thing i have ever heard or experienced in all of my concert going years! Cant wait for 3 nights in st augustine! Thanks Billy keep doing what your doing!
Sweet venue and a truly unique and memorable show…
What a total package at a Billy Strings show! World class musicians, an amazing stage set and lights. 1st set was all train themed songs and the second was all animal themed songs. It was absolutely amazing! This was my wife and I's second time seeing him live as we saw him in April of 2023 as well. We will continue to see him live as long as he keeps coming to Tampa (and maybe other cities as well). If you like bluegrass with a twist, you will love Billy Strings! Peace
