Since first breaking into the music scene almost 20 years ago, Griffin House has been considered a “rising star,” which might be one reason that “Rising Star” is the title of one of his most recent albums, and not one of the dozen or so that preceded it. And part of his career definitely fits the definition: he had been in Nashville just a few months when he signed a record deal, saw his first album lauded by critics, was noted on national TV as “one of the best emerging songwriters,” and found himself touring with John Mellencamp and The Cranberries, and meeting the likes of Bruce Springsteen and Willie Nelson. Some might consider that a path to “overnight success,” but “I’ve been a “rising star” for the past 15 years” House jokes, “It’s a slow rise.”

That slow rise has seen the Ohio native release more than a dozen albums, enjoy plenty of success as national headliner for over a decade, and earn a great deal of respect as a well-known performer and singer-songwriter. And he shows no signs of slowing down. Maybe American Songwriter says it best: “If you are looking to be blown away by raw talent, then look no further than Griffin House.”
