About

The War and Treaty is a husband-and-wife musical duo featuring Michael and Tanya Trotter. Their career began to gain significant momentum after signing a major-label record deal in 2022. They are recognized for their performances at awards shows and events, including the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. The duo has collaborated with various artists, such as Zach Bryan and Ringo Starr.

Before forming The War and Treaty, Michael Trotter Jr. served in Iraq with the United States Army from 2003 to 2007. During his deployment, he learned to play piano and began writing songs, performing at memorials for fallen soldiers in Iraq. Tanya Trotter pursued a solo R&B career in the nineties. They met at a music festival, married, and subsequently formed The War and Treaty, building a career that focuses on themes of hope and connection through their music. A feature-length film based on their lives is currently in development.

The group’s music blends rootsy R&B with country gospel. Their new album, “Plus One,” released in February 2025, includes songs that incorporate mainstream country elements while retaining their signature message. The War and Treaty received two Grammy nominations in 2024, including Best New Artist and Best American Roots Song. They became the first Black duo nominated for the Country Music Association Award for Duo of the Year in 2023 and the Academy of Country Music Award for Duo of the Year. In 2025, they received an Emmy for their work with the NFL’s Tennessee Titans.
