Griswold, from Augsburg, Bavaria, is a band that refuses to follow in someone else’s footsteps but aims to follow its own path. With 14 years of experience under their belt, Griswold are, strictly speaking, no newcomers – indeed, the band members have been making music together for half their lives.
Mixing different styles and genres, this six-piece band manages to create something entirely new. Influenced by rock and pop legend David Bowie, indie heroes Neutral Milk Hotel and Daniel Johnston, experimental rocker The Mars Volta and jazz standard bearer Wayne Shorter, Griswold offers an exciting fusion of experimental indie-pop and jazzy folk-rock.
