Live From The Artists’ Den (CD) (2008)
“The opening of Patty Griffin’s Live at The Artists Den is startling. In her cover of Sam Cooke’s “Get Yourself Another Fool”, Griffin ends repeating the title lyric, reinterpreting the melody in each line, until softly and beautifully concluding the song. The reinterpretations alone are inspiring. Then, Griffin opens her speaking voice to say thank [...]
Live From The Artists’ Den (DVD) (2007)
“Patty Griffin seems to inhabit a timeless era in her recordings. Each record sounds as if it could have been recorded either yesterday or 50 years ago, as a mix of immediacy and classic songwriting happily co-mingle from song to song. She is often described as a singer’s singer or a songwriter’s songwriter, which is just a fancy [...]
Children Running Through (2007)
“Children Running Through is the moment Griffin has been striving for her entire career thus far, that place where she “arrived” in her own aesthetic and professional view, the album that cements the emotional and musical adventure of the former album [Flaming Red] and the clarity of vision, the seamlessness of the execution and the [...]
Impossible Dream (2004)
Patty Griffin is “one of the rare ones . . who sounds like she’s drilling straight to those widespread, unspoken truths that we all recognize when we let our guards down. It’s not just the clarity of her voice, which at its most urgent sounds like it’s flowing unfiltered straight from the soul. It’s not [...]
A Kiss In Time (Live) (2003)
“Patty Griffin’s first live outing is a fine, poetic, flesh and blood example of what a live recording should be. This is as undressed as it gets; a fine record of a truly magical show at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nash Vegas; a fitting end to a tour that began with the hope of [...]
1000 Kisses (2002)
1000 Kisses is “a superb match for the material, and without forcing their hand, Griffin and the musicians can sway from the life-on-the-street swagger of “Chief” to the Latin romanticism of “Mil Besos” to the torchy late-night blues of “Tomorrow Night” without missing a step, finding a broad emotional spectrum in these low-key sessions.
“Griffin’s voice [...]
Silver Bell (Unreleased)

Flaming Red (1998)
On Flaming Red, “Griffin didn’t stick with traditional rock arrangments — she also recorded country-rock, folk, catchy pop and even trip-hop songs, as well. Instead of camouflaging her songwriting, it actually reveals the richness of her music and lyrics.
“Flaming Red is evidence that Griffin is one the more talented and ambitious singer/songwriters to emerge in [...]
Living With Ghosts (1996)
On June 5, 2009, Patty performed at Massey Hall in Toronto, ON,with Emmylou Harris, Shawn Colvin and Buddy Miller. See post for Toronto Sun review.
