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."

AWARDS & ACCOLADES

Honorable mention for American Songwriter lyric contest, featured in upcoming the July/August issue.

>>

Legends: Bobby Braddock

In Nashville, most successful songwriters have a fairly short run. On hit, one year, two years, five years. Occasionally, we get one whose career approaches the length of a real career or, more often, one who has a few years success, then slips into oblivion, only to emerge again for another brief era of hit-making.

Legends: Rickie Lee Jones

She speaks softly, not unlike the way she sings --soft, soulful passages, almost like secrets to the closest of friends --punctuated by bursts of exaltation. It's much like the span of emotion in her work, and in her new record, Balm in Gilead, which veers from the pure, naked heartbreak of "Bonfires" to the elation of "Old Enough," to the beautiful "Wild Girl," which celebrates the 21st birthday of her daughter, while simultaneously reflecting on the unchained fervor of her own wild days.

Legends: Robert Earl Keen

As singer/songwriters go, Robert Earl Keen doesn't seem like the kind of artist who could honestly be accused of sloth. But despite a catalog choked with characters and conversations pulled from a colorful life, he makes that very claim on "Something That I Do," a track where he brags of his ability to not let work get in the way of an otherwise pleasant afternoon.

It's 10 o'clock at night on an abandoned Music Row. The year is 1985. In a third-floor office in an old house that serves as the offices for the Oak Ridge Boys' Silverline/Goldline Music Publishing, Steve Earle brings the chair he's leaning back in down hard, flipping his hair out of his eyes for emphasis.
