'Patty Griffin' review: A vivid and extremely personal offering from music's very own Wonder Woman
Patty Griffin is no stranger when it comes to unraveling her life through her songs and her music has just the right amount of mystery in it to keep listeners intrigued and their curiosity aroused.
Patricia Jean Griffin, aka Patty Griffin, couldn't have chosen a better time to drop an EP with her 55th birthday just days away. Released on March 8, the 13-track record showcases the veteran songstress' command over music and her ability to add magic to the simplest of tunes with such finesse.
The album is a nod to her immense repertoire of music she produced over 27 years which aged gracefully from stripped-down folk and American music to becoming modern folk infused with blues and gospel. Patty sings about diverse themes ranging from love and death, heartache and joy, to connection and detachment.
