Griffin Holtby is a 19-year-old singer/songwriter based in Dallas, Texas. A high energy blues rocker, Griffin plays guitar, bass and drums and sings. A voracious songwriter, he has numerous songs in his back pocket. He aborted his original plan to go to Berklee College of Music to take a gap year, working daily in his practice space near Love Field, performing around town and going on a couple of tours. In November on The TeenNation Tour, an anti-bullying and pro mental-health campaign, Griffin told his story about his struggles during high school with depression, anxiety and abandonment issues to teenagers in schools in the Houston area. He plans to continue to spread his message to teens in she Dallas area, telling them “If you feel like I did when I was fourteen, the most courageous thing you can do is to get help.” Griffin’s goal in his music is to spread the message that “you are not alone.”
