Founded in 2014 by the husband-and-wife duo Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter, The War And Treaty has emerged as one of the most electrifying new acts in American music. Recently earning their first ever GRAMMY nominations for Best New Artist and Best American Roots Song for "Blank Page," they also received this year their first ever Duo of the Year nomination from the Country Music Association, Vocal Duo nomination from the Academy of Country Music, Vocal Duo nomination from the Academy of Counrty Music, plus recognition by the Country Music Hall of Fame, Grande Ole Opry, and Americana Music Association including earning AMA Duo/Group of the Year for the second straight year.

With a lionhearted sonic blend, both roaring with passion and tender to the touch, The Tennessean notes, "they are unlike any other act in music." The War And Treaty's major label debut album Lover's Game (Mercury Nashville), was met with critical praise with Associated Press claiming, "The colossally talented pair continue their commando, no limits journey to the top of the music world." Drawing respect across the board, they have gone on to appear as top-flight collaborators including the latest "Hey Driver" with Zach Bryan.

The War And Treaty has also captivated audiences across the globe from North America to Europe, Australia and beyond, while headlining their own shows and opening for a diverse group of living legends: Al Green, Brandi Carlile, Chris Stapleton, Jason Isbell, John Legend, Lauren Daigle, and Van Morrison among them.

The Kentucky Gentlemen

With charisma as warm as the Kentucky sun, The Kentucky Gentlemen are not just making their mark on the country music scene - they are redefining it. The dynamic twin brother country music duo have been captivating audiences with a sound that is a reflection of their roots - the country sounds they grew up with and the modern R&B and pop influences they've absorbed over the years.

In both music and life, Brandon and Derek Campbell have been nearly inseparable since birth. These brothers from Versailles, Ky., got their first public singing experience in a church choir.

Songs filled with poignant lyrics that speak to the heart with melodies that linger long after the last note has been played. Their authenticity, coupled with their musical talent, has earned them a loyal fan base along with being named 2023 'Artist to Watch' by both NPR and Nashville's Country Music Almanac. The duo is also a part of the 2023-2024 Academy of Country Music “Future Leaders of The Music Industry”  OnRamp Program. The boundary breaking duo has spent the year both touring and writing. Recently releasing an Apple Music Session with Fancy Hagood, that included TJ Osborne (Brother’s Osborne). Past singles, Vibin’ and Whatever You’re Up For have topped CMT’s music video Countdowns. The Kentucky Gentlemen are a testament to the enduring power of music, a remarkable reminder of the ties that bind us, and a tribute to the timeless appeal of the country music genre.
