Gretchen Klempa is a vocalist based in Boston. Klempa's vocals, often described as effortless and commanding, dominate her new solo debut project. Klempa's brand of laid-back and nostalgic indie soul draws inspiration from both the golden age of jazz standards and rock and roll. Gretchen formed the band Gretchen and the Pickpockets in 2012 and began gigging throughout New England. In 2018, the band went on to garner numerous awards, including Jazz Artist of the Year in both the Boston Music Awards as well as the New England Music Awards. Her solo project gives listeners a glimpse of her own music influences and personality.

Hailed by The Boston Globe as a searing blues-rock guitarist, and The Noise Boston as a musician who makes his guitar growl and has a voice to match, hes been compared to a slightly younger and rawer version of Matt Schofield , by the Blues PowR blog, which also praised him for his gravelly, forceful vocals and stinging guitar work.
