Trevor Lawrence Earns Grammy Nomination for Work with Terrace Martin, Kenyon Dixon
LA-based drummer Trevor Lawrence Jr. (TrevBeats) scored a Grammy nomination for his work with Terrace Martin and Kenyon Dixon, spotlighting his session and production chops.

Trevor Lawrence Jr. earned a Grammy nomination tied to projects by Terrace Martin and Kenyon Dixon, a high-profile recognition for the Los Angeles drummer, producer, and songwriter known as TLJ or TrevBeats. The nomination, announced February 25, 2026, links Lawrence directly to the work that brought the project into awards contention.
Lawrence is credited in this round as part of the team behind material associated with Terrace Martin and Kenyon Dixon, two names that carry weight in contemporary R&B, jazz, and soul production. The nomination highlights Lawrence’s expanding résumé beyond live gigs into production rooms and studio sessions that influence Grammy ballots.
A fixture in the LA session scene, Trevor Lawrence Jr. operates as a multi-genre session and live drummer who has worked with major artists while building a parallel career as a producer and songwriter. He also hosts The TrevBeats Show, a platform he uses to showcase studio sessions, conversations, and beats — an asset that now complements his Grammy recognition and raises his profile as both a performer and a creative lead.
The nomination underscores a trend in which drummers who double as producers are getting credited at higher levels on modern recordings. For Lawrence, the Grammy nod validates a body of work that spans session drums, production contributions, and songwriting collaborations with artists like Terrace Martin and Kenyon Dixon. That combination positions him for more session calls and collaborative projects across R&B, jazz, and hip-hop in Los Angeles and beyond.

With nominations revealed February 25, 2026, the practical effect for Lawrence is immediate visibility within the industry and among session players who track credits and bylines. His presence on The TrevBeats Show gives him a direct channel to leverage the nomination into higher-profile dates, production openings, and guest appearances that can translate to both live work and residuals.
As Grammy season advances, Trevor Lawrence Jr.’s nomination alongside Terrace Martin and Kenyon Dixon marks a milestone for a working LA session drummer turned producer and songwriter; expect the nomination to amplify TrevBeats’ bookings and studio inquiries throughout 2026.
