Trabue Gentry began writing music at age twelve and has since penned over 150 musical compositions. In the 70's he teamed with friends Kevin Sterner and Dennis Neff, performing live shows in the midwest. Neff moved on to other musical ventures, and Gentry and Sterner continued composing and performing as a duo. In 1977, the two met with a major Nashville record producer, Pete Drake, and were offered a recording contract on the spot. Most unfortunately, personal issues prevented them from moving forward with the deal. Overwhelmed by the dissapointment over this lost opportunity, Gentry abandoned music and pursued other business interests. Gentry and Sterner went their separate ways. Years later Gentry and Sterner crossed paths again, resuming their friendship and rekindling their interest in music, even revisiting the possibilities of releasing some of those songs the Nashville producer was convinced had great promise. Today Gentry is working on several musical projects, new and old. Realizing he can't rely on others to make things happen, he's pulled some of those lost treasures off the shelf for a revisit and began composing new. Other musicians have since demonstrated great interest in working on some of these previously unreleased tunes. Gentry is now working on several creative musical collaborations and is crafting the World Music Project, a cross-continental project with promising new artists.
