ABOUT PATTY GRIFFIN:
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 HERE. 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 addition to her creative career, Griffin has also devoted considerable energy and focus towards the wellbeing 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, always imbuing every effort with compassion and craft, uncanny perception, and ever-increasing ingenuity.
ABOUT GREGORY ALAN ISAKOV:
Gregory Alan Isakov is a GRAMMY-nominated singer, songwriter, and performer, beloved by his devoted community of fans and critics alike. Since his debut, Isakov has released five full-length albums including his most recent, 2019's Evening Machines, which was nominated for "Best Folk Album" at the 62nd GRAMMY Awards. Of the album, released in collaboration with Dualtone Music Group and Isakov’s independent label, Suitcase Town Music, NPR Music praised, “Evening Machines showcases his emotionally evocative songwriting style; rich in narrative detail and beautifully contemplative,” while Billboard asserted, "characteristically ruminative…blending a gentle spaciousness with dusky atmospheres and carefully nuanced textures" and Rolling Stone heralded, "beautiful collisions of acoustic instruments, Isakov’s soothing vocals, and otherworldly noise.” Most recently, Isakov and The Lumineers covered each other's songs to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Dualtone Music Group. Listen to Isakov perform "Salt And The Sea" and The Lumineers perform "Caves" here. Isakov will also join The Lumineers on their 2022 winter European tour. Moreover, earlier this spring, Isakov released a rare live video performance of his song "She Always Takes It Black" from 2013's The Weatherman (watch here). Born in Johannesburg, South Africa, raised in Philadelphia, Isakov now calls Colorado home. When he isn’t on the road, he spends much of his time on his farm in Boulder County, which provides produce to the farm’s CSA members and local restaurants.
