 Gretchen
 Biography

In a few words, Gretchen's music can be defined as positive, heavy melodic, happy-gothic, chic-rock. Their performances are as versatile as they are powerful, attacking the stage with heavy guitar, pop-driven melodies and high-energy emotions. Even though Gretchen's sound has been described as a cross between The Benjamin Gate, Evanescence and a heavier edged No Doubt, they have forged a sound all their own, balancing catchy hooks and melodies with heavy guitar tones that give the music teeth without losing it's radio friendly edge. Gretchen is at home playing with heavy weights like P.O.D. or Chevelle, but retain the ability to gel with more contemporary styled groups. Stationed in Tennessee, Gretchen has been touring the country; making appearances at well known festivals and events like Sonshine and Ichthus as well as being invited to play at the world renowned CBGB's. Gretchen's new CD, "In the Mean Time" was produced by three time Dove Award winner Travis Wyrick; highly acclaimed for his work with the bands Pillar, Andrew Carlton, Disciple and P.O.D. "In the Mean Time" is now available in stores.
