Kim Groff, a proud Connecticut native, has spent years championing independent music and the creators behind it. His passion for the craft — and his belief in the power of authentic, grassroots artistry — has made him a respected advocate for indie musicians around the world. Kim’s mission is simple: uplift the artists who deserve to be heard and help them reach the audiences waiting for them.

As the Owner and President of Keltstache Music, Kim has built a platform dedicated to supporting indie bands, artists, and authors across every genre. Keltstache Music is a home for discovery — a place where listeners can explore new music, radio stations, books, and artwork curated with care and a genuine love for independent creativity.

Kim’s commitment comes from lived experience. As an indie artist himself and co‑founder of the bands The KIN'DRED and STONES, he knows firsthand how difficult it can be to navigate the modern music landscape. Before The KIN'DRED was signed, they were grinding like every other indie act — promoting themselves, building connections, learning the ropes, and figuring out how to break past local borders. Those years shaped Kim’s understanding of what indie artists truly need: real support, real guidance, and real opportunities.

Keltstache Music exists because Kim believes in community over competition. He believes indie creators deserve visibility, respect, and a platform built by people who have walked the same road. His mantra says it all:

“INDIE is The Future.”
