Spencer Hatcher

Stone Country Records’ Spencer Hatcher is a bluegrass-influenced country artist who was raised on a farm in the heartland of Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley. By the age of 11, Hatcher was already playing his five-string banjo in his family’s bluegrass band. In 2020, he formed his own country band, backed by younger brother Connor Hatcher, a bass prodigy and “blood harmony” supporting vocalist.

Quickly developing a reputation across Virginia and neighboring states as an exciting live performer, Hatcher self-booked and played more than 150 shows a year in both 2023 and in 2024, often setting venue attendance records.

While Hatcher is still known as a “banjo shredder,” he’s now equally renowned for guitar picking and his unique vocals with a smooth southern drawl. The Daily News-Record, Hatcher’s hometown newspaper in Harrisonburg, Virginia, has dubbed him the “String King.”

Hatcher closely studies his musical heroes, including fellow bluegrass-turned-country artist Keith Whitley, but as this young old-fashioned gentleman begins his Nashville adventure, he’s determined to forge his own creative path.

Hatcher’s debut Stone Country Records release is a three-pack of traditional country songs produced by Jason Sellers, Ilya Toshinskiy and Mickey Jack Cones that includes the feel-good, focus track “Cold Beer and Common Sense,” available across all digital and streaming platforms now.
