Brett Hughes has been a long-time collaborator in the Burlington, Vermont music scene, as a singer-songwriter, bandleader, and member of numerous local and regional bands.
In 2005, he won a regional Emmy Award for soundtrack composition for Jay Craven's Windy Acres on Vermont Public Television and was voted Vermont’s Best Country Artist in the Seven Days Daysies Awards in both 2023 and 2024.
Living in Warren, VT, Hughes has played regularly with mandolin virtuoso Matt Flinner, performed at the Green Mountain Bluegrass and Roots Festival with banjo maestro Noam Pikelny, and Seattle-based Eli West, and enjoyed a long collaboration with golden songbird Kat Wright, as well as some of Vermont's most accomplished musicians.
