Tenille Townes

Canada-born, Nashville-based singer-songwriter Tenille Townes has become one of country music’s most compelling voices, known for deeply human storytelling rooted in empathy, honesty, and emotional clarity. Over the past five years, her music has earned her two JUNO Awards, two Academy of Country Music Awards including ACM New Female Artist of the Year, and 17 Canadian Country Music Association Awards, alongside more than 315 million global streams.

Townes is also the first female artist in Mediabase Canada history to achieve two No. 1 singles, with the Platinum-certified “Somebody’s Daughter” and Gold-certified “Jersey On The Wall (I’m Just Asking).” A Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree, she has toured with artists including Stevie Nicks, Miranda Lambert, Shania Twain, Keith Urban, Reba, George Strait, and Zac Brown Band while building an international fanbase drawn to her ability to balance heartfelt vulnerability with uplifting optimism.

Now stepping fully into her independence, Townes is entering a new creative era on her own terms. Following the release of her self-produced and independently released album The Acrobat on April 10, 2026, she returns with “Sunshine’s Free,” a radiant new song featuring Keith Urban on guitar.
