Gretchen & The Pickpockets

Fronted by vocalist Gretchen Klempa, Gretchen and the Pickpockets are a six piece soul/jazz rock band that features heavy horn lines and a healthy dose of improvisation. The band also consists of Richie Smith (Guitar), Mike Klempa (Bass), Diego Tunjano (Saxophone), Ryan O’Connell (Trumpet), and Tom O’Connell (Drums).
A new full-length album is currently in the works and is due early 2018, featuring engineering from Dan Cardinal (Darlingside, Ballroom Thieves) and mixing from Nick Nagurka (Vulfpeck).

Accolades include an Iguana Music Fund grant from Club Passim, Best in State: New Hampshire 2015 from the New England Music Awards, nominated for Best Pop Act in 2016, and Best Rock Band 2015 from the Seacoast NH Spotlight Awards.
