Guthrie Trio Bio / About Us:
Guthrie Trio are a Blues influenced Reggae Rock band from the Rockingham & Mandurah Region in Western Australia. Having performed their style of Reggae Rock music across Australia for nearly a decade, Guthrie Trio’s music shares meaningful messages through upbeat party punky reggae rhythms that anyone can enjoy.
Guthrie Trio was formed early in 2015. Guthrie had been performing solo since 2010 and was eager to create his first debut solo album. Guthrie called upon friends Max Carter & Jase Le Scelle to join him in the studio to help create a full sounding album release. After a very successful launch, the guys decided to start gigging the album together across the state as a band.
Soon after this, Guthrie embarked on his first Solo National Tour taking “Seeds of Change” on the road, performing a main stage slot at Nimbin MardiGrass Protestival to an attending estimated 15,000 people. Guthrie has since performed across the nation in various formats and has been on many festival lineups including: Nimbin MardiGrass, Mandurah Channel 7 Crabfest, Musical Fruits Festival, Kinetic Dreaming Music Festival, Bob Marley Outernational, WAMFest, Gidgestock, Chronicfest, and more. Guthrie has also been invited to support acclaimed artists including The Original Wailers, DownSyde, Georgi Kay & Matt Gresham.
In 2020, Guthrie Trio released a five track EP called “Fresh Ground”, showcasing a variety of compositions with meaningful messages and a mix of danceable rhythms, warm tones and catchy hooks. In 2021 the band filmed their first music video for their track “Legal Lies” with the help of Peter Renzullo from Scudley Film & Records. This music video was later nominated for a variety of awards as well as making it into the selection for notable international film festivals including the American Golden Picture International Film Festival and winning an award from the Virgin Spring Cinefest.
In 2020 Guthrie Trio won the Australian Cannabis Industry “Artist of the Year” award for their release “Fresh Ground”, and in 2021 the boys won the same title for their music videos “Legal Lies” and “Inhale The Good Shit”.
In 2021 the band had another change in lineup with Paul Rhodes joining them on Bass, which brought some fresh rock & groove bass lines into the bands music.
In 2022 Guthrie Trio released three independent releases “Freedom of Choice (Single)”, “Seeds of Change : Revegetation (3 Track EP)” and “In The End (Single)”.
Last year in 2023, Guthrie Trio released their latest single “Just Us”.
