BIOGRAPHY

Nashville, TN - Trey Lockerbie is a young 22 year old singer/songwriter who recently moved to Nashville to record his first EP entitled "The Hummingbird" released in May. Trey was recently picked by Nashville's radio station WRLT Lightning 100 as a Local Spotlight Artist and also featured on sites like Kings of A&R;. His song "Sullivan Street" received an honorable mention in a lyric contest for American Songwriter Magazine and will be featured in the July/August issue. Trey has also already had two songs on a Josh Kelley (Universal Nashville) record and toured as his guitar player as well as Lenka (Epic Records) and Josh Hoge (Blackledge Music) and has also opened as a solo artist for many national acts including Green River Ordinance (Virgin). Now he's ready to set out on his own and everyone seems to agree.

"Trey's debut solo effort is truly a masterpiece." - THISisMODERN

"Local singer-songwriter Trey Lockerbie splits the difference between the spacey sweetness of Coldplay and the hushed, confessional soul of John Mayer on his new The Hummingbird EP. It’s hard to make rock that’s this agreeable stand out in the crowd, but he should have no trouble making his mark."
-The Tennessean

"After hearing 'The Hummingbird EP,' you will no doubt believe that Trey will eventually get what he is after, and he's definitely ready for it now."

"Trey is slowly building a body of work that is sure to be recognized for it's quality."

Sessions: David Bazan

It was pretty slow. I mean, I played [the songs] on acoustic guitar for a long time, but I didn’t know how to transfer them to the other format. I didn’t want it to be a solo acoustic record.

Sessions: Vetiver
