PATTY GRIFFIN ANNOUNCES HEADLINING TOUR DATES
DATES BEGIN MAY 17 IN ATHENS, GA
AND GO THROUGH JULY 27 IN EAST GREENWICH, RI
2x GRAMMY® Award-winning singer/songwriter Patty Griffin has announced headlining tour dates. Beginning May 17 at Hodgson Concert Hall in Athens, GA, and ending July 27 at the Greenwich Odeum in East Greenwich, RI all shows will be "An Evening
With..." featuring Griffin and her guitarist David Pulkingham. Tickets for Patty's shows at The Birchmere on July 12 & 13 are on sale now!
Patty Griffin is among the most consequential singer-songwriters of her generation, a quintessentially American artist whose wide-ranging canon incisively explores the intimate moments and universal emotions that bind us together. Over the course of two decades, the 2x GRAMMY® Award winner – and 7x nominee – has crafted a remarkable body of work in progress that prompted the New York Times to hail her for “[writing] cameo-carved songs that create complete emotional portraits of specific people…[her] songs have independent lives that continue in your head when the music ends.” 2019 saw the acclaimed release of the renowned artist’s GRAMMY® Award-winning 10th studio recording, PATTY GRIFFIN, available now via her own PGM Recordings label via Thirty Tigers. One of the most deeply personal recordings of Griffin’s remarkable two-decade career and first-ever eponymous LP, PATTY GRIFFIN made a top 5 debut on Billboard’s “Independent Albums” chart amidst unprecedented worldwide acclaim, and later, a prestigious GRAMMY® Award for “Best Folk Album.” In 2022, Griffin shared TAPE, a collection of rare demos and home recordings hailed by No Depression as “a thoughtful
collection of found objects…Griffin’s fans will be quite glad to have these songs in any form for the light they shine on her brilliance.” In addition to her creative career, Griffin has also devoted considerable energy and focus toward the well-being of the planet as well as showing compassion for the less fortunate among us via personal and public acts of charity. Having crafted a rich catalog that chronicles love and death, heartache and joy, connection
and detachment, Patty Griffin continues to push her art forward, as always imbuing every effort with compassion and craft, uncanny perception, and ever-increasing ingenuity. Last
year, Griffin was awarded the "Lifetime Achievement Award for Songwriting" by the Americana Music Association.
