"Beautiful songs, deep lyrics and catchy melodies" is how BBC Music Introducing describe the Oxford-based singer songwriter, Patrick Griffin.

Blending influences from his most revered songwriters spanning genres such as folk, pop, jazz and soul, Patrick's songs portray passion and emotion with memorable hooks and a story to tell.

Patrick has supported well known acts on the folk circuit such as Jacob & Drinkwater, Lady Maisery, Gerry Colvin and Gilmore and Roberts whilst also performing his own headline shows and a variety of festivals across the country.

Patrick's debut single "A Different Drum" has been well received, achieving a feature as "Artist of the Week" on BBC Music Introducing and as well as positive reviews; “A Different Drum beckons you over and invites you to be part of its world. It’s like a big mug of hot chocolate, with its gentle arrangement and “Be Yourself” positivity lyric. If you’re in need of gently restoring, repairing or renewing, then A Different Drum can bathe you in it’s golden tones and rebuild your sense of self."
