About Trey:
Trey is the youngest African American Man in Country Music History. The Denver Post wrote
"It's impossible to miss his enthusiasm. With a fondness for cowboy boots, gaudy colors and dazzling jewelry, Trey Taylor could stand toe to toe with any of the Pop, Country or even Rap
contemporaries of his generation.“
