Artist Information
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 10th studio recording and first-ever eponymous LP, PATTY GRIFFIN, on her own PGM Recordings label via Thirty Tigers, which won a GRAMMY® for Best Folk Album . As always, Griffin's power lies in how, as writer Holly Gleason observed in Martha's Vineyard Gazette, "her songs seem to freeze life and truth in amber."
Todd Snider
At this point in his career, Todd Snider is undeniably one of the greatest songwriters of his generation, as attested by legends like John Prine, Loretta Lynn, Kris Kristofferson, Jerry Jeff Walker, Billy Joe Shaver and Guy Clark. But Snider is so much more than the lovable, lazy-ass stoner yodeler he appears to be. Did you know his memoir is a best-seller, which makes him a best-selling author — let that sink in. He's had an accomplished film career, as well. Did you know Snider's song "Just Like Old Times" inspired the film Hard Luck Love Song which stars some people you've heard of? The film even includes an on-screen performance of the song by Snider during the closing credits. He also starred in the independent feature film East Nashville Tonight. First and foremost Snider remains one of America's truly gifted storytellers. And if you've got tickets to see him live, boy, does he have a few songs and a few stories to share with you.
