“During a particularly quiet moment between songs, as everyone waited excitedly for the next number, a fan shouted, “That was good!” A simple statement – but said with such sincerity that Sherry needed to thank him for the best thing he’s ever had yelled at him on stage. It could have been said after every song, though, with just as much truth.” Hannah Jenkins V13

Living somewhere in-between modern catharsis and American myth, Griffin William Sherry’s roots continue to grow strong in the ever-evolving genres of Folk, Americana and Rock & Roll.

Griffin’s music is inspired by his rural New England roots. As such, he cobbles together an inimitable signature style, visceral and heartfelt, loud and passionate, each song taking on a voice of its own.

In 2011, He co-founded the independent band The Ghost of Paul Revere, capturing the hearts and minds of countless fans with a series of acclaimed releases and sold-out shows everywhere. He helped establish his own music festival, performed on national television, and garnered millions of streams. In 2019, his song The Ballad of the 20th Maine became the official Maine State Ballad, securing The Ghost of Paul Revere’s place in Maine music history.

After writing music for seventeen years, Griffin is touring frequently and completing his first solo record, taking a defiant step in a new direction.
