Hailed by many as one of America's best contemporary songwriters, Gretchen Peters' intelligent and introspective songs have been covered by pop, country, blues and folk artists all over the world including Faith Hill, Etta James, Bryan Adams and Neil Diamond.
Gretchen's music is for those who prefer lyrics that have the strength to generate an emotional response. Her songs carry an extra punch. When artists look for songs that are smart, witty, emotional and real, they often look to Gretchen Peters - she possesses a rare ability to drive a strong point, yet capture it eloquently in song. The Associated Press says of Peters' music 'This is not jukebox music - the stuff that exists to fill in the pauses in conversation. This IS the conversation'.
Each track on 'HALCYON' has a message - 'Tomorrow Morning', playlisted by Radio 2 is about being a committed optimist, how the promise of tomorrow morning keeps you going. 'If Heaven' lets us experience all the things we hope will be waiting for us. And for those kids at school, who may or may not know that they will not always be the losers there is 'Imogene'.
Gretchen concludes: 'I don't think writing is an act of self-expression as much as an act of self-discovery'.
