ROB ICKES & TREY HENSLEY (Grammy Nominated Countryfied Bluegrass!)

Some things you know are just meant to be—but even when you do, it’s nice to get some outside affirmation.  So while Rob Ickes and Trey Hensley were sure that their musical partnership was the right move at the right time, it was still welcome news when their debut Compass Records project, Before The Sun Goes Down, earned a nomination for the Best Bluegrass Album Grammy just about the time that Ickes took leave of the band he’d been in for over 20 years to make the joint venture the centerpiece of his career.  And with the release of their new project, The Country Blues on July 8th the pair build on the first one’s strengths to take their unique music.
