Over the years, Patty Griffin has created an ever-widening circle of fans with her distinctive voice. Rolling Stone called it "an amazing instrument." After her sparse and acoustic 1996 debut, Living With Ghosts, artists began covering Pattys songs immediately. In 1997, she released her rocking follow-up, Flaming Red, earning her the reputation for successfully exploring varied genres of music. In 2002, Patty offered an eclectic mix of stripped down recordings with 1000 Kisses which was followed in 2004 by a collection of darkly lush song-stories on Impossible Dream; both received Grammy nominations. Her recordings have been included in films and television and most recently appeared on the soundtracks for Cameron Crowe's film "Elizabethtown." Patty is currently recording a new set of songs for an album scheduled to be released in February 2007.
Patty Griffin does not personally monitor this site. However, she has designated her management team as caretakers of her Myspace page. We promise to keep her updated on your comments and concerns, to answer your questions when we can and to post all the latest news on Patty's shows and music.
