Sister Rosetta Tharpe (20 Maret 1915 – 9 Oktober 1973) adalah seorang penyanyi, penulis lagu, gitaris dan artis rekaman Amerika. Sebagai pelopor musik pertengahan abad ke-20, ia meraih ketenaran pada 1930an dan 1940an dengan rekaman-rekaman gospel-nya, yang dikarakterisasikan dengan percampuran unik dari lirik spiritual dan iring-iringan ritme yang menjadi pendahulu dari rock and roll. Ia adalah bintang rekaman besar pertama dari musik gospel dan salah satu musisi gospel pertama yang tampil ke audiensi jenis rhythm-and-blues dan rock-and-roll, kemudian disebut sebagai "The Truly Sister of Soul" dan "Godmother of Rock and Roll".[1][3][4][5][6] Ia mempengaruhi para musisi rock-and-roll awal, yang meliputi Little Richard, Johnny Cash, Chuck Berry, Elvis Presley dan Jerry Lee Lewis.[5][7][8]
