First of all... we would like to thank everyone that ever came out to listen to Grupe Therapy.
With that said, due to life in general we've decided to disband. We had a great run and enjoyed every show we played and everyone that came to the shows.
We'll try to keep our MySpace site up to date but if we should happen to lose it, you can always check out our music here at LocalBandz.Com.

"This past weekend's Virginia Recreation and Parks Society 50th Birthday party celebration would not have been the same without your band!

Americana, country/rocker Jennifer Brantley and her band will be appearing at the 2008 International Folk Alliance in Memphis TN Feb 21 at the Memphis Marriot Hotel.
With her new CD Break Down in rotation on over 153 radio stations and 20,000 fans on her Myspace page, Brantley is optimistic about the future. In addition, one of her songs recently reached # 6 on New Music Weekly’s Up and Coming country radio charts. The CD also received a lot of airplay on Americana stations, as well.
It was just three years ago when producer Bil VornDick, (Alison Kraus, Bela Fleck, Ralph Stanley)- a man with Numerous Grammy credits to his name- caught Jennifer’s show at a Nashville club. The two met a couple of times and began working on the CD which was released Sept 4.
Jennifer's music spins songs of about the rural South, dysfunctional relatives, tales of wayward preachers, lost love and hope. Though Jennifer’s music can mainly be classified as Americana and Country/rock, she draws from a lot of different influences. Traces of The Beatles, The Stones, Carol King and Emmylou Harris, Tift Merritt even The Byrds can be heard in Jennifer's work. She even plays a 12 string electric guitar on stage.
Jennifer's last CD did well on the Internet charts. She had a #1 song on Garageband.com and several chart toppers on Mp3.com as well. She also got some radio play. Her song 'Did It for You' even found its way overseas. "Songs come and go, but the response from this song, especially in our New Zealand affiliates is unheard of" says Program Director Mark Baum. Baum's Green Mountain Music Productions has been playing the song on one of its syndicated radio shows. The song also won an Honorable Mention Award from Billboard's World Song Contest.
