Both performances will air live on ABC in the U.S. and Sportsnet in Canada from Oracle Arena before the Warriors and Raptors take the court at 9 p.m. ET.
“I’m so proud and honored to be representing my home country and singing the Canadian National Anthem at Game 3,” said an elated Tenille. “This is the first time the Raptors have been in the finals, so it’s really exciting.”
Tenille began her week Monday (6/3) signing autographs in the TuneIn booth at the Music City Gives Back event at Ascend Park and performing at a fundraiser at InDo Nashville. She flies to San Francisco today for tomorrow night’s performance and then heads back to Nashville tomorrow to jump into CMA Fest.

Born and raised in the small prairie town of Weyburn, Saskatchewan, Tenille Arts picked up the guitar and penned her first song at age 13 and has been performing across the US and Canada ever since. She made her first appearance on The Bachelor in January 2018 singing her original song “Moment of Weakness.” The performance resulted in a record deal with powerhouse indie label Reviver Records. She made her second appearance on the show in January of this year performing “I Hate This.” The song hit #1 on both the U.S. and Canadian iTunes Country Charts and #9 U.S. iTunes all-genre following the episode.

Noted music critic Tom Roland was so moved by her music that he has penned three full-page features in the Billboard Country Update. Music Row Magazine critic Robert K. Oermann called Tenille “Promising in the extreme.” Streaming giant Pandora named her one of their new artists to watch, and CMT included her in their “Ten Must-See Indies You Need to Know,” a video discovery program that spotlights rising independent artists and established artists from independent labels. Rolling Stone named Tenille one of their “10 New Country Artists You Need To Know,” calling her “An edgy, Fearless-era Taylor Swift with crystalline vocals; ideal for hopeless romantics who are fire signs,” and PopCulture.com named her one of their “Country Artists to Watch in 2018.”
