Trevino began entertaining from the bandstand when he was only thirteen years
old. He won the FFA Talent Contest and competed at the State level while in high
school. Trevino recorded his first record, “The King of Clubs” when he was seventeen. He developed a passion for traditional Country Music during this time and has dedicated his career to promoting it. He was featured in the JVC/Smithsonian/Folkways Video of Anthology of American Folk Music when he was twenty one.
Trevino has released two albums on his own record label, Neon Nightmare. Both “Texas Honky Tonk” and “Loud Music and Strong Wine” received rave reviews from music critics throughout the United States. The projects included duets with such legendary artists as Johnny Bush, Jake Hooker, Curtis Potter and Leona Williams.
He then signed with Lonestar Records and released “Travelin’ Singing Man.” That album sold over three thousand of copies and spawned a recent tour of Sweden with Claude Gray and Becky Hobbs. He then released his second album on Lonestar Records titled “The Scene of the Crying.”
Trevino joined Heart of Texas Records in 2003 and immediately released “Too Many Heartaches”. The album contains eight songs that Trevino penned and duets with Pretty Miss Norma Jean and Darrell and Mona McCall. It was followed with “More Loud Music And Strong Wine.”
His first gospel album, “Before You Say Amen” contains fourteen standards along with some new selections as well. “Before You Say Amen” has already become a favorite among traditional and gospel music fans selling over 2,000 in its first weeks of being released.
His latest project "Take One As Needed For Pain" is filled with honky tonk shuffles including "When She Does Me Right She Does You Wrong" "I Just Lost My Favorite Girl" and "Neon Sun".
Trevino also fronts most of Darrell McCall’s performances and plays bass for the legendary Honky Tonk singer. He has worked with some of the biggest names in Country Music including Johnny Bush, Gene Watson, Kitty Wells, Justin Tubb, Hank Thompson and Charley Louvin.
Trevino owns his own studio and has produced projects on a number of entertainers including the award winning duet album on Floyd Tillman featuring Willie Nelson, George Jones, Mel Tillis, Connie Smith and Ray Price among others. http://www.justintrevino.com/
