7 May
Summary
- The War and Treaty embraces diverse musical influences.
- They won Americana Music duo/group of the year twice.
- The duo will headline Nashville's Ryman Auditorium soon.
The musical duo The War and Treaty are carving out a distinctive space within country music, challenging traditional narratives with their innovative sound. Their upcoming album delves into the complex interplay of sacred sounds and secular desires, featuring collaborations with notable writers like Babyface. Tanya Trotter emphasized the importance of expressing raw, honest emotions, while Michael Trotter highlighted the duo's demand for deeper listener connection.
Having been recognized as Americana Music Honors & Awards duo/group of the year in both 2022 and 2023, The War and Treaty have a proven track record of critical acclaim. Previously signed to Universal Music Group Nashville's Mercury Nashville imprint, they parted ways after releasing their latest album, 'Plus One.' Their collaboration with Zach Bryan, 'Hey Driver,' reached number 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 2023.
The duo's genre-defying appeal has earned them accolades such as Billboard's Groundbreaker Award in 2024. They are equally comfortable performing at country music events, jazz festivals, or tributes to music legends. The War and Treaty are scheduled to headline Nashville's iconic Ryman Auditorium on September 13th, with tickets available starting May 15th.
