verygently is the collective force of three established Nashville singer-songwriters — Drew Erwin, Joey Hendricks, and Tristan Bushman — who came together in early 2024. With tours alongside Augustana, The Band Camino, and The Fray, and the release of their debut EP DUMBA$$ MODE, the band quickly turned heads through high-energy live shows and songs that blend wit and vulnerability, weaving heartache with the undeniable charm of three best friends sharing the stage.

The band’s 2025 sophomore EP, FAME!, marked a confident evolution. Produced by Noah Gundersen and combining Bushman’s moody storytelling, Erwin’s soaring melodies, and Hendricks’ ’70s-infused songwriting, the record feels both fresh and nostalgic. Recorded to analog tape at the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, FAME! solidifies verygently as a band whose collaborative artistry is greater than the sum of its parts, setting the stage for an exciting future.

verygently is currently on the road with Ruston Kelly. Their newest single, HOW IT’S ALWAYS BEEN featuring Ruston, arrives February 27 and marks the first release from their upcoming debut album, due later this year.
