BIO

At 29 years old, Triston Marez has amassed over 100 million streams while staying true to the raw, honky-tonk heart of country music. Rooted in dancehall tradition but driven by modern storytelling, Marez has carved out a sound that feels timeless, lived-in, and unmistakably his own.

A Houston native with deep Oklahoma family ties, Marez was raised in a musical household steeped in bluegrass, fiddle tunes, and classic country. He picked up a guitar at just six years old, played his first live show in a first-grade talent competition with a Buck Owens song, and never looked back. Before music became the full-time focus, Marez worked as a ranch hand and even rode bulls — experiences that continue to shape the grit, honesty, and blue-collar perspective in his songwriting.

Marez first gained national attention with his debut releases, blending rich vocals with stories of long nights, hard lessons, and fleeting love, all delivered with a sound that nods to influences like Chris LeDoux, Aaron Watson, and Cody Johnson. His breakout moment came with his debut album, which featured a duet with country music legend Ronnie Dunn on the fan-favorite track “Where The Neon Lies.” The collaboration cemented Marez as an artist capable of honoring country music’s past while confidently pushing it forward.

In 2025, Marez made the intentional decision to step back from releasing music, not to disappear, but to refocus on writing, vision, and the next chapter of his career. That year off became a creative reset, sharpening his perspective and setting the foundation for what’s next.

Now, in 2026, Triston Marez returns with renewed purpose and a clear direction. His upcoming single, “Saddles and Spurs,” signals the start of this new era, A return to hard-driving, dancehall-ready country that celebrates freedom, grit, and the road-tested life he knows best.

On stage, Marez is a force. His high-energy live show delivers pure honky-tonk vibes — packed dance floors, raised drinks, and crowds that come to move, sing, and stay till last call. Whether it’s a packed dancehall, festival stage, or rowdy barroom, Marez brings a show that feels like a Saturday night the moment the band kicks in.

With a proven track record, a loyal fanbase, and a renewed creative fire, Triston Marez isn’t just returning, he’s stepping into the strongest chapter of his career yet.
