   About Joe Griffin


Joe Griffin writes hooky, odd guitar pop/rock inspired by and recalling the work of such giants as The Beatles, Elvis Costello, Tom Petty and Ziggy-era David Bowie. Praise from the Illinois Entertainer spanning the last decade includes such laudatory phrases as "truly talented" and "rich, strong vocals," as well as slightly puzzling ones like "intelligent guitars."

Joe Griffin has been playing guitar and performing music for thirty years. During his musical career he has performed and/or recorded with numerous Chicago bands including the Others, Question of Honour, and The Radio Hour. He is currently a member of the garage-experimental duo Donny Who Loved Bowling and the lead guitarist for his brother Pete's band Braintree. Joe's full-length CD, "Rough Cut Love," will be released September 3, 2006 on Toxic Bag Records.




You can order "Rough Cut Love" now from Toxic Bag Records.

Hi Joe,

Just stopping by to listen to some of your new music. Looks like you're crazy busy as usual. Love "I am stretched on Your Grave." I also like the new version of "Cold Hands Warm Heart" but I'm still partial to the original. Keep Rockin'!
