The Musical Elective of the Week is Griffin House.Griffin House is a 27-year-old singer/songwriter based in Nashville, Tennessee but originally from the Cincinnati, Ohio area.
House's first major album, Lost & Found, was released in 2004. His latest album, Flying Upside Down, was released back on April 29. In between, he also has released a couple of EPs and a 2006 digital-only album, Homecoming. He also notched two independent releases back in the day, 2002's No More Crazy Love Songs and 2003's Upland.
I would describe House's music as intimate, personal and poetic and certainly cut from an acoustic rock mold. He cites as some of his musical influences Billy Bragg, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen and Wilco.
For those of you who might want to catch him in the act, he's all over the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast and Southeast during the months of July and August. So, check him out.
I need love, I need love, in the middle of the day----------------------------
When the world just keeps stopping
And your heart just keeps slipping away
