BEFORE THE SUN GOES DOWN

2015 release that pairs RobIckes, the international bluegrass music association's 15-time Dobro player of year, with rising singer/guitarist Trey Hensley whom Ickes recently discovered while recording in the tri-cities area of east Tennessee. after collaborating with Hensley on an album track from blue highway's current release, and inviting him to guest on some live shows, Ickes was inspired for the two musicians to record a studio project together. before the sun goes down is the result of that effort and it is a unique project in the way it seamlessly blends contemporary bluegrass and the spare studio styling's of classic '60s and '70s country music.
