Hailing from Lexington, Kentucky, Joslyn Hampton is the lead singer and driving force of the R&B/ Soul/ Funk band, Joslyn & The Sweet Compression.
Joslyn found her voice at a young age in church and has continued to cultivate her sound throughout the years. With the help of her Step-Father, Marty Charters, she’s built her own original material. That love of performing has taken Joslyn and her band from Coast to Coast and all points in between. “The music Joslyn Hampton conjures onstage is rich with the funk, soul, and rock ’n’ roll inspirations of multiple generations, and at the heart of the brassy attack of her band, The Sweet Compression, and in the clear and confident command of her singing, sits a core element: Groove.” — Walter Tunis, Lexington Herald-Leader
