He collaborated on the redesign of an instrument called the kalimba so that it could be mounted on his guitar.

With this unique pairing of instruments, and compositions ranging in style from driving rhythms to soft melodic phrases, he has caught the attention of some pretty impressive people.

Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, Graham Nash, says Trevor’s music is both soothing and challenging.

Two of his albums were produced by 9-time Grammy winning producer Joe Nicolo of James Taylor, Billy Joel, and Bob Dylan fame.

And, his music has been featured on various radio stations and television networks.
