American Singer Songwriter Griffin House Is celebrating the release of his new record “Stories for a Rainy Day”. This album is a collection of 9 songs written during the pandemic and recorded in just 3 days, and is being described as his most happy and upbeat yet.
The opening track “The Mississippi Hippie” was originally written for a feature in Esquire magazine called “Somewhere in Mississippi” and was rediscovered and resurrected for “Stories for a Rainy Day.”
The album was recorded by Tim Pannella using a stripped down trio set up with Jersey based musicians Eric Novod on drums, Mark Masefield on keys, and House on guitars and vocals. With minimal production and the band playing together as opposed to overdubbing, the songs have a space to be more playful, free and alive.
