It's been a big year for International Acoustic Music Award Winner (IAMA 2023) Gordie Tentrees with 2 new records (Double Takes - May 2025) and his upcoming release (Country Blue - May 2026) based in Canada (Whitehorse-Yukon). 
"Majestic songwriting, incredible insight, genuine authenticity" AMERICANA UK

Double Takes (2025) was produced in Nashville TN with Nash Chambers (Archie Roach, Kasey Chambers) and features Charlie McCoy ( Elvis Presley), Tania Elizabeth (Avett Brothers) and Lucky Oceans (Asleep at the Wheel)  "Rooted in human truth & experience, there's grit aplenty here" FATEA MAG EU

Most recently Country Blue (Coming out in 2026) was recorded live off the floor at Ganaraska Recordings (Ontario Canada) with Jimmy Bowskill (Blue Rodeo, Sheep Dogs), and Steve Marriner (Colin James, Harry Manx) over 5 days in a farmhouse with vintage 1930-50's microphones, amps, and vibes conjuring up a record Tentrees has been making in his mind for 10 years leaning into the blues.

This road poet has performed over 5000 concerts in 11 countries armed with 5 instruments (Foot Bass & Snare Tam, Harmonica, Resonator & Acoustic Guitars) taking the light from the dark never repeating with masterful storytelling. 
"Organic, holistic, this is the wild sound of freedom" MIDWEST RECORD USA
 

For the past 5 years off the stage he is part of an indigenous led healing team (Shawthan Nazhi) supporting families with grief singing & healing songs with a focus on intergenerational trauma.  The program was awarded the Arctic Inspiration Prize (500K). He is equally adept at teaching/hosting festival workshops.

Tentrees has toured extensively with friends Fred Eaglesmith, Mary Gauthier, Kelly Joe Phelps, Danny Michel, Ray Wylie Hubbard & Steve Poltz with special appearances at Celtic Connections (UK), National Folk Festival (AU), Woody Guthrie Folk Fest (USA) and Auckland Folk Festival (NZ).
