Samantha Grace

Samantha Grace is a Cleveland-born singer-songwriter currently based out of Akron, OH.  Her songwriting branches over a wide variety of genres and pulls influence from punk, R&B, and bedroom pop.  Her vocal performances are often compared to Dolores O’Riordan and Kathleen Hanna.  She draws influence from The Runaways and Kate Bush.  She looks up to Tegan and Sara, and King Princess as modern influences of genre-bending queer talent.  Her song “Kiss N’ Tell” was featured on Akron Recording Company’s “Where the Hell is Akron, OH Vol. 2” compilation, and her song “Light it Up” was featured on “Where the Hell is Akron, OH Vol. 4”.  In addition to her own project, she currently plays synth and sings in the band “Big Pop,” plays keys and sings in the band “Benny Lava & The Guavas” and performs as Kate Bush in the cover band “Hounds Of Love.”  As a reiki master and newly certified yoga teacher, she is working towards music and yoga/reiki fusion workshops in the future, collaborating with Yoga Squared in Highland Square.  Her new EP, “Five After Midnight,” is due to be released sometime before the end of 2023.
