Griffin & The True Believers, Bramble Queen
& A Stick and A Stone
Griffin & the True Believers are Griffin Epstein, Andrew Epstein, Mike Cacciatore and Aaron Burns. We make politicized emotional think-rawk – we! make! you! think! and! rock! – and we want to bring it to your town this summer. We promise to make you laugh, sing and…think. We have lots of new songs to play for you – new songs about old stories, the weight (and weightlessness) of carrying memory, organizing against colonial and capitalist violence even in the face of a robot apocalypse, and so on. This summer, we want to head up the east coast and into Canada on our way to recording a brand spankin’ new album in Toronto. We want to keep playing pay-what-you-can shows and fundraisers for the awesome projects we support – we want to keep our music cheap and accessible.
