About

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).

    Face melting

    by Christy on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    I fell in love with Billy Strings music last year. My first time seeing him was in Nashville in Feb '23. I just attended my 5th show at Lexington. It was a family affair. My husband and I took our 6 yr old daughter and 13 yr old son and to say they were impressed is an understatement. We love Billy!!!

    The Absolute Best

    by KentuckyGirl on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    The two shows at RUPP were two of the best Billy Strings shows I've had the pleasure of seeing and hearing. He really brought his best to Kentucky and this is what we all needed. If this was someone's first time seeing Billy, I'd venture to say they are fans for life now. Long term fans are still reeling from the magic. Rupp Arena staff was friendly and welcoming. The sound was perfect. Let's do it again!

    Best Concert of My Life

    by Hew on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    I am 42 years old and have attended many concerts. I was not a follower of Billy Strings but got tickets on the recommendation of a friend. I went both days and the experience I had was nothing short of magical. I am a fan for life now and will try to see Billy any time he comes to Kentucky. The music + the light show was incredible.

    Billy Strings at The Rupp

    by Mutherocker on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    Words cannot describe the absolutely amazing performances in both these nights shows. This young group of men in this band are on top of their game and are truly athletes on their instruments This venue was so acommodating to the fans allowing vending in the parking lot and lining up early in the day. Hassle free entry. It however could use some IPA beverages and not just the Budweiser selection of beer offered. I hate Budweiser. My 42nd time seeing Billy Strings The only thing better than a Billy Strings show is the next Billy Strings show.

    Bluegrass for the Stadium

    by Bruno on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    I wondered how Billy & company would work in an arena setting. It worked great! The investment in lighting & effects was a perfect backdrop for the musical fireworks. The band repeatedly acknowledged the history & tradition of bluegrass music in Kentucky. There music was enough to satisfy both the traditionalist & the jam band crowd. It was a wonderful night for the gathering of the tribe again.

    Billy Strings is a true mensch!!!

    by Debra on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    Billy strings was one of the most genuine and generous performers I’ve ever seen! He was absolutely precious. You could feel his humble energy and his joy was contagious. He performed multiple encores, bows, and truly deeply cared about connecting w/ his fans. I LOVE this man and look forward to seeing him again.

    Amazing show! Sound was excellent

    by happyglass on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    Rupp is generally not the best venue for sound but this concert was exceptional. Not only a great artist with a great band backing him but the sound was fantastic. It would be great to see Billy in Lexington again soon.

    2 Nights of Billy Strings

    by JohnnyD68 on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    We have seen Billy Strings in Nashville and Asheville and to see him close to our home was a treat. He is an amazing artists and his high energy really gets the crowd going. His bandmates feed off his energy. They are a very talented group. His set list never disappoints and is different every night. We finally got to see Dust in a Baggie for the first time live. He brings in fans ranging from early teens to 70’s and 80’s. The light show on Night 2 was better, in my opinion. We enjoyed seeing him bring in a local artist, Miles Miller to play some tunes with him. I also liked the setup for Shakedown Street. The vendors were very nice and had some cool and original things to offer. Looking forward seeing Billy again soon.

    Billy is a beast!!!!

    by Smed on 4/30/24Rupp Arena - Lexington

    These guys are amazing. The blend of genres, while staying true to who he is as an artist, is something everyone should witness at least once. I was able to take my mom to her first show Friday and a friend to his first Saturday. They both had a blast and I was happy I was able to share this moment with them. Check these guys out at a town near you ASAP. BMFS!!!!!
