Welcome to griffsongs.com and the music of Trevor David Griffin, a multi-instrumentalist singer songwriter with a wealth
of original and varied material, some of which is available through indiestore.com/griffsongs.
I have broken my
music down into three categories- rock songs, rock based instrumentals, and electro instrumental music, with everything
written, performed and recorded by myself.
The rock songs are mainly guitar based "big songs", the rock
instrumentals are more free form with different textures, while the electro instrumentals are more "soundscapes".
The
merging of a rock emphasis with electronic forms is where I find myself happiest working, and a sense of liveness and naturalness
is hopefully evident throughout all pieces.
Influences are many and varied- broadly cross Depeche Mode with Zeppelin
for the rock based songs, bring in the influences of Kraftwerk and Rush for the instrumentals, then strip everything down
to electronics and "mind painting" for the soundscapes.
There are currently over 80 recordings available-
2 CDs worth of electro pieces, 2 of instrumental "rock" and 4 "rock song" CDs. I've also always liked
the idea of the old EP's and having different styles of music combined in one package- so various 4 track EP discs are
also available.
