Yates McKendree is a Nashville-born multi-instrumentalist and vocalist.
Born in Nashville and raised in a recording studio, McKendree grew up hearing and playing with many great musicians. Self-taught from the age 3, music came to him naturally.
At only 22 Years old, McKendree’s experience as a professional musician spans more than a decade. He has earned the critical acclaim of Nashville Songwriter Hall of Fame inductee Gary Nicholson, as well as a Grammy for his work as an instrumentalist and sound engineer for Delbert McClinton’s “Tall Dark & Handsome.” His debut LP, “Buchanan Lane,” charted #1 on Roots Music Reports and was nominated for numerous Blues Music Awards from the Blues Foundation.
