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).
Billy Strings is a phenomenal artist and the venue is awesome!!!! Had such a good time
I’m on the billy bus. Seventh show I’ve seen and every one keeps getting better. Great venue and loved seeing billy fans take over Lexington
Billy Strings bburned the toof off! Such a great crowd both nights!
Such amazing talent! I would love to see every show that Billy performs!
Billy Strings might be the best live show you can see from a group of living musicians. The variety and virtuosity they exhibit is out of this world and is such a rare treat in times where so much music is the soulless product of a computer program. Words can’t really describe the energy and the vibe at a Billy Strings show so I suggest just going to see them for yourselves- as often as is feasible!
This was my first time seeing Billy Strings!!! Best concert ever!! Will be following to see him other places!! Was totally amazed with this group!! Sooo much talent and perfectly played!!
Great show! I went both nights in Lexington and both shows were amazing!
Show was fantastic! At first, we thought we would just have an audio show, as our seats were way far away, and Rupp's jumbo screen was off. Then after a couple of songs, bam! He had his own jumbo screen right behind the stage. Now we can also see the performers. And they were worth seeing. Everyone in the arena was having a good time. So glad I finally got to see Billy in person...very much worth the wait.
This was the best show I have ever seen!! So much talent!
Billy blew the darn barn doors off Rupp this weekend.
