Nancy Wenstrom is a Bay Area-based singer, lead guitarist, songwriter, and recording artist in the genres of rock, blues, jazz and country.

Born in Houston, Texas and growing up as an Air Force brat, she has lived all over the USA. She has played in numerous SF Bay Area bands and recorded 9 albums on her indie label, WCM Records. She was also the lead guitarist for the Zasu Pitts Memorial Orchestra, a premiere San Francisco R&B band.

Her newest album, The Tommie Tapes, is a 40th Anniversary first issue release consisting of 19 of her original songs recorded with her band, Tommie, in 1984 & 1985. She digitally remastered the music at Skywalker Sound, and has formed a new all-female band to celebrate the release of this project: Jan Martinelli on bass, an original member of Tommie, has played on most of Nancy’s albums. Jennifer Jolly on keyboards is also a well-known Bay Area musician, instructor, and performer. Drummer Robin Roth, a talented musician and instructor, rounds out the quartet.

Nancy says, “I hope you can join us for this very special record release party event. Come for the music of Nancy Wenstrom & The Restless Girls and have a piece of cake on us!”
