Tensas & The Mourners are a dark Roots-Rock band that delivers an energetic performance of original music, with tales of bitter loss, turmoil and hollow victory that will incite and stir dark feelings within you. This Colorado based 3 piece was formed in early 2023 by Tensas, who is the founder and lead singer. Some say this​ act embodies the essence of ​Tom Waits blended with the energy of Gogol Bordello, always delivering an unforgettable and unique mix of rockin' roots, folk, blues and more!

Tensas and his bandmate Desha started out performing live as drum/guitar duo like the White Stripes and evolved their sound further last Fall when the new bass player, Aloena, joined the band. They are known to mix things up and keep the crowd entertained by playing multiple instruments simultaneously at their live shows. Currently, the band is recording a hard-hitting full-length album set to be released by summer of 2024!
