Biography

Rench is an Emmy nominated, billboard charting musician and producer. He has been combining Country and Hip-Hop sounds for more than a decade, including solo material and projects like Gangstagrass. Rench created the Emmy nominated theme music to the FX network series “Justified.” “Rench and his friends have done nothing short of creating a new form of music. Gangstagrass takes two types of music that are opposites and mixes them together brilliantly in a way that is natural and enjoyable.” – Elmore Leonard

Rench also produces a variety of styles out of his Rench Audio production company – everything from pop to soul to folk to hip-hop. He produced the Maple Blues Award winning blues-gospel album “Send the Nightingale” by Samantha Martin and Delta Sugar. He produced the folk-soul album “Crossover” By Dan Whitener, which had a track placed in Spike Lee’s film “Black KKKlansman.”

“Rench’s vision has a toehold on a racy, improbable hybrid.” -No Depression Rench likes music with soul and music that makes you feel and he brings two decades worth of production experience, plus his weird brain, to bear in his mission to innovate in music.
