This Metro Detroit musician will have you in a “State of Mind”

Trey Connor shares his new album, and musical inspiration

For this week’s Music Monday we invited Trey Connor on the show to talk about his new EP, and beginnings in the music industry.

Connor said he got his musical start from playing Guitar Hero, and figured he could do the real thing. A year later, Connor said he began writing and singing, and has been doing it ever since.

Connor said his new album “State of Mind” is set to drop this Friday, and it’s all about being alive today. He said nowadays it feels like there is always something else that will contribute to the end of the world, and trying to keep a healthy state of mind can be difficult.

All of the songs in the album were written during peak pandemic, and recorded shortly after. Connor said he was influenced by the pandemic, and now seems like the perfect time to release it.

“I Lose Without You” is the second single on the EP and Connor said it is about losing someone important to you. He said it’s your classic “you don’t appreciate what you have until it’s gone” song.
