Patty Jean Griffin was born in Old Town, Maine on March
16th, 1964. As the youngest of seven children-three boys
and four girls- Patty grew up in a house filled with music.
Her mother would sing as she did housework, and her
grandmother's family used to sit out on the porch,
harmonizing until the sun went down.
Patty's parents discouraged her from going into a
career in music. They felt that musicians were too often
disappointed. Her father was a physics/chemistry teacher
at the high school, and her mother stayed home to take care
of the family. One year for Patty's birthday her father
bought her Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and Patty
loved it. Her interest in Bruce Springsteen and Ricki Lee
Jones soon followed.
Review about Patty Griffin Oh no, she's very good | Reviewer: JIm
------ About artist/band Patty Griffin
I "discovered" Patty at the 3 Girls & Their Buddy show. I went to see Emmylou, but left a fan of Patty's. Lyrics are deep and emotional. Her delivery is heart-felt and emotive. Bought 3 albums of hers from iTunes after seeing the show (spent too much money), and have been listening since. She might not be good for everyone, but I like her. Esp Top of the World...what an insightful and emotional song. This is real artistry, evoking emotion, causing you to reflect... good stuff, in my book.
Amazing! | Reviewer: Michelle
------ About the song Heavenly Day performed by Patty Griffin
This is one of the most beautiful and uplifting songs I have ever heard. I absolutely adore it. Patty Griffin is amazingly talented. Her voice is inspiring. Just beautifully written and perfromed melody and lyrics. Awesome!!!
I would like the guitar chord accompaniment for the song, Wayfaring Stranger. Thankyou. If you have alternate chords, I would appreciate you even more.

------ About the song You'll Remember performed by Patty Griffin
I love this song. When I listen to words I start to get flashes of all the people I would love to play it for. We all have a lost friend or love that we hope will one day look back on what once was and remember us with a smile.

------ About artist/band Patty Griffin
...at least, not directly. I've never seen her perform, or heard any of her recorded music.
Rather, my awareness of Patty's music has come from a former friend, Barbara Nesbitt (who has the most beautiful voice I've ever heard).
Barbara LOVES Patty's songs, and sings quite a few of them (exceptionally well): Hey Stormy, Better Way To Say Goodbye, Buddha Buddha ? (my favorite), Mary, and others I don't know the names of.
Is Cornflake Girl a Patty song ? I've only heard Tori Amos sing it.
Please pardon me, but I can't help promoting Barbara (her singing makes men stupid, lol). You can check her out at : BarbaraNesbitt.com, and she also has a myspace page.you'll only hear her original music there, unfortunately, because she greatly improves anyone else's songs she cares to sing.
Right now, I'm working on converting my boot tapes to DVD-R, but I've found that the software I bought to do it is pure garbage (Pinnacle), and I'll have to redo them all before I have anything to post and share.

------ About the song Let Him Fly performed by Patty Griffin
The clear and crisp sound of Patty's voice resonates through your soul. Her simple guitar accompanying her adds to this haunting sound -- you almost need to close your eyes to really feel it. And the lyrics...wow. If you ever had to let someone you love go, but you did everything to hold on to him/her before you were forced to do so, you'll feel as though this song was written for you. I think I've been playing this song on repeat even before I ever heard it... It's an incredible gift when you find a song like that.
mil besos | Reviewer: mare
------ About the song Boston performed by Patty Griffin
I am confused all the web pages I read with the lyrics to Mil Besos, from Patty Griffins 10,000 kisses CD. the lyrics do not seem to match the song, when I listen and read, it is very different. I wanted the correct lyrics, if they are avail please tell me where.
Capturing the lonliness of goodbye | Reviewer: rober
------ About the song Useless Desires performed by Patty Griffin
Patty has given us a hauntingly beautiful image of that final goodbye...a tragic, simple resignation.
Haunting images as we walk away from one who took 10 years of our life...not suddenly but over time...resorting to that bitter pill to numb the pain of the slowly developing distance between us...eventually resulted in even our powerful desires becoming tiresome. cold detachment does that. And all that is left for us is one more day burning itself out...wishing for some kind of freedom, the other is nevertheless left just as alone, for, the multitudes of the city don't care, the beautiful old buildings are simply stone.....cold, for it is only love that makes life real...but that was lost in time.
Surprised and Delighted | Reviewer: PJ
------ About the song Rain performed by Patty Griffin
The first time I heard this song I thought for certain it was Lee Ann WOmack. Rain is an emotional and beautifully performed song which describes the rain some tears can be like. Patty has a lovely voice and the strong acoustic guitar accompaniment really makes this song kind of folkish/country. The keyboards emphasize the feeling of rain and the overall mood of the song.
awesome song!! | Reviewer: Esther
