Pure Power Americana

Griffin William Sherry, former frontman of The Ghost of Paul Revere, returns with an electrifying solo debut that’s as raw and passionate as it is inspiring.

Rooted in the rugged landscapes of New England, Griffin’s new album blends modern catharsis with the timeless soul of American myth. His signature style fuses Folk, Americana, and Rock & Roll, creating music that is visceral, heartfelt, and unapologetically loud.

Griffin first captured our hearts as co-founder of The Ghost of Paul Revere, an independent band that soared to success with acclaimed releases, sold-out tours, and millions of streams. He built a music festival, graced national television, and spent 17 years writing songs that resonated with fans across the country.

Now, with Hundred Mile Wilderness set to release on September 20th, Griffin embarks on a bold new chapter. His solo debut is a testament to his growth as an artist, and the album promises to deliver the same fire and authenticity that have defined his career. Get ready for a powerhouse tour in support of this transformative record!
