The Grass Gypsys are an independent, acoustic fusion band from Boston with a signature sound fueled by the power of two. Husband and wife musical duo, Justin and Colleen Kleya, blend styles from America’s roots music: Folk, Jazz, Rock n’ Roll, and Blues; into their catalog of original music and cover songs. They have been compared to Tuck & Patti & Nora Jones, Colleen’s rich and charismatic vocals and Justin’s expressive, finger-style acoustic guitar playing is a treat for any audience. Coffeehouses, Festivals, Cafe’s, House Concerts & Bars: The Grass Gypsys are your traveling troubadours of old, driving town to town, sharing stories of their adventures, the places they’ve visited, people they’ve met, and translating their insights through in their music’s content.
The Grass Gypsys got their start in Boston, MA in 2005 and have been touring across the United States since 2006, playing over 200 shows in 2008 alone. They have recorded two full-length, self-released albums: “Legend’s, Myth’s, & Fairytales” (2006) & “Lesson’s From Eden” (2008), and are in the process of recording their third album and planning for their fourth cross-country tour.

that spurs the songs that lead us…”
