Tenille is paving her own way in this business of country music in Canada. As we’ve watched this young aspiring artist, grow before our eyes into a young woman, Tenille is quickly becoming a role model to many and has an infectious way of inspiring everyone she comes across, with her contagious smile and uplifting attitude.

Tenille embarks into 2013 with new single “Dear Heart”, off of her soon to be released album “Light”, a great departure from her previous release, introducing us to a wiser and more grown young adult. This album gives us insight to the trials and tribulations of a teenager facing growing into a woman, falling in love and being carefree with your heart.

Tenille is known for her philanthropy contributions, which resulted in being honoured as the youngest recipient in history to be presented with the Slaight Music Humanitarian Award at the 2012 Canadian Country Music Awards.

In 2012 Tenille was also recognized by the Grande Prairie & District Chamber of Commerce - Business Excellence Award for "Young Entrepreneur of the Year" and recently in early 2013 received the Queen Elizabeth II - Diamond Jubilee Medal. Following this great honour, Tenille also received The Alberta Country Music Association’s Award for “Female Artist of the Year” for the 2nd year in a row and also was awarded with the 2012 “Fan’s Choice”.

Tenille intends to use her developing career and notoriety to continue to give back through music to communities across Canada. Grande Prairie’s starlet is setting her mark on country fans and industry alike with her strong advocacy for ‘giving back,’ with heavy fundraising efforts with several organizations and in addition, to creating her own annual music event Big Hearts for Big Kids benefiting Sunrise House, the youth emergency shelter serving a wide area of Northern Alberta. In the four-year event tenure, $350,000 has been raised which helped to keep the shelter doors open.

In addition to being busy finding ways to “give back”; Tenille started her own headlining tour, called “Play It Forward”. This tour kicked off in her home province of Alberta on October 15th running through to November 16th, 2012. Tenille traveled to schools across Alberta with a message through music and motivational speaking for students, promoting positive leadership efforts for Canada’s youth. During the 5-week duration, Tenille managed to reach over 10,000 students in 29 schools all over the province. With Alberta being such a great success, The Play It Forward tour will travel across Canada this spring, starting off in BC March 2013.

Tenille has been fortunate to land opening slots for well-known acts including Terri Clark, Randy Travis, Easton Corbin, John Landry, Aaron Pritchett, Emerson Drive and Gord Bamford. She has performed at some of Canada’s biggest country music festivals including The Calgary Stampede, Manitoulin Country Fest, Bud Country and heard across the country on Breakfast Television Edmonton, CTV’s national morning show and Canada AM.

Signed to Royalty Records in 2011, Tenille released her sophomore album on March 12th, 2013 entitled “Light”. 

A trusted troubadour for hot summer nights and cold beers, Owen is now in his forties, tangling with separations from lost lovers, raising kids, and growing out of the fresh-faced kid that headed down to Nashville 20 years back with a six-string and a dream.  Case in point: Dreams to Dream, Owen’s long-awaited, Shooter Jennings-co-produced foray into classic, honky-tonk country, out November 7 via Good Company Entertainment. Dreams to Dream, Owen’s first independent studio album, featuring 10 original tracks and two stellar covers, tells the tale of a man at a crossroads — and what it takes to set out a new path. 

Owen wasn’t expecting much when he commented on one of Shooter Jennings’ Instagram posts, half-jokingly suggesting that they make a honky-tonk record, but the producer called his bluff. Two days later, Owen’s manager had Jennings on the line and, soon, Owen was on his way to L.A. and Jennings’ Sunset Sound. It was a cozy yet electric scene: Jennings and Owen cracking jokes in the sepia-toned studio, creativity crackling as they collaborated with the likes of songwriters Ben Chapman and Kendell Marvel, as well as long-time shooter pal, guitarist/harmonic player Leroy Powell. 

“All my friends who have heard my stuff have gone, ‘Dude, Jake, this is you man. This is who you've always tried to be,’” Owen says. “Sometimes you need to get outside what's comfortable, what people think you are, or think you should be, and take a risk.”
