Trey Hawkins Band

Trey Hawkins Band brings in their own musical influence from blues, jazz, country and rock to a splash of soul. The collaboration of mixed genres fuels the originality of the Trey Hawkins Band. The musical influences of Waylon Jennings and the Allman Brothers Band filter in their music with a rocked out twist screaming Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Black Crowes. And just when you think they sound like ??? that, ??? here comes the instrumental phenomena of the Dave Matthews Band and Stevie Ray Vaughan. Their unmatched style of singing and prodigal instrumental talent all held together with fresh, addictive melodies bring their vocal and instrumental performances to life at every show. - Little Rock Entertainment Agency

Hailing from tiny Hamburg, Trey Hawkins got his musical start early. He was barely out of toddler territory when he sang a rendition of the Willie ‘n’ Waylon classic “Mamas, Don’t Let Your Babies Grow up to be Cowboys” at his grandmother’s kitchen table.
He was hooked after that, influenced by the sounds coming out of his father’s home stereo. He wrote his first song at 14, and from then on he was singing and songwriting. He performs solo and with the Trey Hawkins Band (Aaron Murphy, Mark Bolin and the Breedloves — Andrew and Jonathan), and has created a body of work informed by country and Southern rock of classic and more recent vintage and inspired by his small-town upbringing.

Exhibit A: The contemplative “Purple Skies and Dragonflies,” which finds Hawkins examining how our earliest experiences shape us. - Arkansas Times
