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).
The show was beyond awesome. Can't wait to see them again.
My friend got tickets from a friend. Neither of us are big bluegrass listeners. But we were both blown away and thoroughly enjoyed the show, the venue, and the crowd! What a talented group of musicians!
Billy Strings is a uniquely talented artist. Great musicianship, energy and emotion. A throwback to the days of rock-style live jams with a bluegrass flair.
Really enjoyed the show. Billy and band are true instrumentalists and great entertainers. The Forum is a good venue for concerts. Good acoustics and not a bad seat in the house.
Billy and his band were wonderful-the venue is too! So easy-great friendly staff in a beautiful atmosphere Loved this night at the Forum!
Truly and honestly an amazing show. Top to bottom a once in a lifetime concert. I wouldn’t miss an opportunity to see him.
Billy Strings is just AMAZING !!!! So are the other musicians in the band. They give it ALL they've got!!!!! The lights were beautiful too. TOTAL RESPECT !!!!!
Billy Strings is the best thing to happen to live music in a long time. Absolutely iconic.
Billy Strings and his ferocious band is one of the best bluegrass/jamgrass (etc) bands on the circuit. This kid can do things on an acoustic guitar that defy reality. I just can't think of any band that has the chops that these guys have. A bad ass banjo, mandolin, fiddle and bass back Billy and his unique take on the bluegrass genre. If you have a chance...Billy Strings is a must see.
If you ever get the opportunity to see him, do it!!! You won’t regret it.
