At age 5, Trey Hawkins recorded his first song sitting at his grandmother’s kitchen table. Hawkins has been surrounded by music and music lovers his entire life, it’s no surprise that music is the motivating factor in everything he does. The ‘southern son’ of a hard working mother and a tough loving father, Hawkins figured out at an early age that music could take a man anywhere he wanted to go-if it was only in his mind. Hawkins was soaking in the Red Dirt sounds that blasted from his daddy’s home stereo and was writing his own songs by the age of fourteen. Whether performing solo with an acoustic guitar in local settings or singing to thousands at Talladega Motor Speedway, it doesn’t make any difference as long as Trey Hawkins gets to sing his song!
Born in Monroe, Louisiana, Hawkins actually grew up just north of the Louisiana/Arkansas state line, where he was raised in Hamburg, Arkansas. He soon began to develop his own style and sound from a long list of musical influences.
From Waylon Jennings to The Black Crowes, to John Mayer and Cross Canadian Ragweed, Hawkins’ unmatched style of singing and songwriting has tastes of country, southern rock, blues and a splash of soul, all held together with fresh, addictive melodies that bring his lyrics and vocal driven performances to life at every show.
A promising performer, Hawkins can draw a crowd to a jaw-dropping level of mesmerization. His soul shined tone, rock solid presence, and his contagious sound keeps you hanging on every word. Armed with a gentle charm and a subtle, yet undeniable magnetism, Trey Hawkins can unpretentiously light up any stage he walks onto. No lights, no limits and no gimmicks, strictly all about the music.
