Patty Griffin, born Patricia Jean Griffin, March 16th, 1964 in Old Town, Maine, is an American folk singer. She brought out her debut album Living With Ghosts--a set of demos featuring only Ms. Griffin and her guitar--to critical acclaim in 1996. Her sophomore album, Flaming Red, demonstrated a more rocking, full-band sound. The ill-fated Silver Bell album was never released by her record label. After switching to ATO Records, the label of Dave Matthews, Ms. Griffin brought out 1000 Kisses and Impossible Dream, which were both nominated for Grammy awards. |
