Known for some of the biggest remixes from the last year, such as his remix of Tove Lo’s “Talking Body,” Maroon 5’s “Animals,” Years & Years’ “Desire,” and more, this gifted up-and-comer has already seen a significant amount of success, hitting #1 on Hype Machine consistently, on top of racking up 100 million streams online.
Although Gryffin has recently been on the cusp of a major breakthrough, he began his musical journey growing up as a classically trained pianist, before expanding his sonic palette with guitar at an early age. He played in bands to initially hone his instrumental abilities, until he dove head first into the world of music production at the University of Southern California. Throughout college and beyond, Gryffin further refined his skills that have blossomed into his artistic mastery that is appreciated by his counterparts and adoring fans around the world. In his genre, artists typically DJ to showcase their talents, but live performance is where his heart lies in capturing the essence of his work.
With a world-debut at this past SnowGlobe Music Festival, Gryffin unveiled his anticipated live performance to finally connect with those who have been behind his impressive play counts. His passion and love for musicianship, and artistry within music shined through as he performed with live instrumentation (guitar, keyboard, synths, & drum pads) in a continuous dance music format to keep up the energy characteristic of DJ sets. Since this performance was a resounding success, the excitement is brewing for his next two sold-out shows at Los Angeles’ The Roxy, and New York’s Bowery Ballroom to close out his first-ever live tour.
Following the conclusion of the tour, Gryffin made the leap to his first original production, “Heading Home” featuring Josef Salvat, which immediately became #1 on Spotify’s Global Viral 50 chart, US Viral Chart, and accumulated a million plays in one week after being released via Darkroom/Interscope Records. It’s already looking like 2016 is going to be Gryffin’s biggest year yet.

Whole Heart
by Gryffin
We got problems in the streets again
Drowning in the violence, it's getting pretty tense
A lot of hunger in the faces I see
A lot of bitterness, communal emptiness
Don't trust the water, friend
Chemicals hide with the skeletons
Don't trust that false pretense
Counterfeit lies are your best defense
I said, you've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
You've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
We got issues that we can't change
As quickly as we'd like to, as we need to
And I'm worried it will back spin
Pulling out the lynch pin, leaving us victims
Don't trust the water, friend
Chemicals hide with the skeletons
Don't trust that false pretense
Counterfeit lies are your best defense
I said, you've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
You've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
I said, you've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Darling, darling, darling, go
Head first, past the point of no return
It's the only way left to go
Can't keep taking while the years go by
Gotta go whole heart this time
You gotta go whole heart
You gotta go whole heart this time
You gotta go whole heart this time
I said, you've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
You've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go
I said, you've got to, got to, got to go whole heart
Yeah, darling, darling, darling, go whole heart
