Watch Bill Strings perform “Hide And Seek” at the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards

Strings' fall tour is confirmed including two-day Renewal event later this month

Renowned singer, songwriter and musician Billy Strings won Artist of the Year at this years 2022 Americana Music Association Honors & Awards. 

The recognition adds to yet another monumental year for Strings following the release of his widely acclaimed new album, Renewal, out now via Rounder Records.

Produced by Jonathan Wilson, the record was released to overwhelming praise with The New York Times declaring, “a premier bluegrass mind for this post-everything era…he has zigged and zagged between the form’s antediluvian traditions and rapid-fire improvisations that hit like hard bop, all within songs with hooks so sharp that he seems poised for crossover stardom.” 

The album also landed on several “Best of 2021” lists including The Bitter Southerner, No Depression, Glide, The Boot, Folk Alley and was one of the Top 50 Most Played Albums at Americana Radio. Strings recently performed album track “Hide And Seek” on the 64th Annual GRAMMY Awards.
