East Idaho Newsmakers: Gentri – The Gentlemen Trio
Published at | Updated atIn this edition of East Idaho Newsmakers, Nate Eaton speaks with Gentri: The Gentlemen Trio.
GENTRI was established in June 2014 and is comprised of three highly trained tenors: Brad Robins, Casey Elliott and Bradley Quinn Lever. Pioneering a signature sound that can only be described as “Cinematic Pop,” the music of GENTRI is transfused with lush, epic orchestrations and rich, dynamic three-part harmonies all composed by the group’s producer Stephen Nelson.
GENTRI’s self-titled, debut EP spent ten consecutive weeks in the Top 10 on two different Billboard charts, including three weeks at No. 2 on both the Classical and Classical Crossover charts.
On the heels of their first album release, the Gents debuted their first music video to their original hit single, “Dare,” which made international headlines on news outlets around the world, including ABC World News, NBC Nightly News and Inside Edition.
The Gents recently released their full-length album, RISE, which included eight new GENTRI original songs as well as two covers. It debuted at #3 on Billboard’s Classical and Classical Crossover Charts, right behind John Williams for Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Andrea Bocelli.
GENTRI has performed with world-renowned talent, including international tenor sensation Alfie Boe, Tony Award-winning vocalist Idina Menzel, and legendary rock band Journey.
The group spoke with Nate Eaton about their music, careers, success and more. Watch the entire interview above and, if you missed the unforgettable Feel Good Friday surprise with GENTRI surprising their biggest fan in east Idaho, click here to watch it.
