Hello stranger! How the devil are you? Haven't seen you in far too long, I'm looking forward to Sundial festival on the 20th, you are definately still playing aren't you? Did you play at the party last night? xxx
Have you had the opportunity to get your hands on a G7th guitar capo yet?! If not, then you're missing out and you should have a look and get in touch so I can help you out...
Hi Sarah, Ive posted the footage of your live performance @ Mr Kyps in my video section of ALLEY CAT,APATHETIC,THE ONE WITH THE ELECTRIC GUITAR and TOXIC and I think they are all completely superb! See you when you support Connie Lush if not before. (werent we supposed to be going out and getting drunk sometime?) Love Emma x x
Hi Sarah, Sounds great - good luck tonight - will try to catch you soon. just a quickie... I am at the Tivoli Theatre, Wimborne on Friday 7th March with band THE BADDEST BLUES BAND (EVER!), double bill with Paddy Milner and The Big Sounds. Check out the myspaces the music is fab. Hope you can come. ciao for now Zoe
Oh whatever, didn't want to have a burger with you anyway. fancy coming over to Swanage next weekend to catch a bit of the blues festival, you can meet the new man, he's real and everything!
You could dear but I suggest you keep the money for yourself, you need it more. Am I gonna see you before I go stateside?? Cheap burger in the quay next week?
I dont really want to throw myspace cliches at you but my unoriginality bids me to write things like 'thanks for the add' and other butt-sniffing statements like 'i love your work' which of cause is all true and cant wait to catch your Gander gig!x
Hope you're keeping well and that we'll share the stage again soon. I always enjoy your set.
Just to let you know Tinderbox will be headlining at the Verwood Acoustic on January 26th
It's a new venue and 26th will be the first night. There will be loads of other musicians playing too such as Steve Skaith, Emily Baker, Victor Chetcuti etc
Hi Sarah, I enjoyed your spot at the Winchester on Thursday, forgotten chords and all! It was my first introduction to "The Griff" and I hope to see you perform again in the future. Take care.
My new CD is laced with the devil's interval and backwards messages imploring listeners to rise up.
That's nothing new in metal - but sounding like a cross between James Taylor, Led Zeppelin and Jethro Tull, it will be the 50-somethings who will lead the uprising!!!
Sarah Griffin’s songs captivate and enthrall all those listening.
Her live performances are both charismatic and graceful with a healthy dose of humor. Her vocal melodies leave people entranced and always singing along. I just can’t get “Ally Cat” out of my head!
Sarah is often backed by the magnificent Griffin band. All of whom add the silver lining to an already beautiful cloud! Not to be missed!
Jurado Music.
Ps. Would be great to hear some male backing vocals in the future. X
Hiya Sarah.. Just listened to 'Poet', stunning, very soothing! Keep up the good work me lady! Hope to catch you live with your band soon.. Until then, love n light.x
