Gentle Sparrow

Gentle Sparrow’s songs live beneath the surface, in the inner world, where emotions and dreams mingle. He began writing as a personal self-care exercise and realized that his music had the power to connect deeply with others as well as himself.

Gentle Sparrow honed his craft in Los Angeles, performing at parties and gatherings, and improvising personalized songs on the spot for his friends and roommates. Now back in his home province of Ontario, Canada he lives and works in a loft studio of a converted church in Lanark Highlands, deep in the woods of the Canadian Shield.

The man behind Gentle Sparrow - Robbie Teehan - is a prolific composer and veteran musician, a 4-time JUNO and 8-time Canadian Folk Music Award nominee. He is known for his film score for the award-winning Canadian indie drama “Scarborough”, as well as his work as a former member of the Lemon Bucket Orkestra, the Heavyweights Brass Band, and the Boxcar Boys.
