Guage Bentley

Country music with scars on it.

I’m Guage Bentley, a South Jersey artist making music rooted in modern country, southern rock, and real life.

I grew up around music. My family was full of musicians, and one of my earliest memories is sitting in my Pop’s music room, listening to him play pedal steel guitar. The way he could make that thing cry stayed with me forever.

Music carried me through addiction, betrayal, abuse, homelessness, heartbreak, redemption, and learning what real love looks like when somebody stays.

Some songs were written to heal. Some were written because I didn’t know what else to do with the hurt. Every song has a piece of me in it.

You’ll hear songs about love, loss, faith, survival, backroads, barstools, second chances, and fighting your way back up when life knocks you down.

If you’ve ever felt broken, lost, or saved by the love of a good woman… you’ll feel at home here.
