Welcome back to Cover Club. This week we premiered the popular Our Griffins cover of Strand of Oaks "Last To Swim". The emotional cover was spread about the internet by favorite sites, WXPN's The Key, Philebrity, The Deli Magazine - Philadelphia, and Swollen Fox. This type of publicity for Our Griffins is soon to be the norm. This year has been a steady climb upwards, for the band. Opening at Johnny Brenda's for Lost In The Trees, a trip to SXSW, opening for Kishi Bashi & Buried Beds at the TLA, and night-cap slot at the fun Communion Club Night at Underground Arts are just a few examples of Our Griffins' hot shows. This Friday, they play the Former Belle release show at Bourbon & Branch with Maitland and Jeremiah Tall. And for what quite possibly is their most exciting show yet, in late July they play the incredible XPoNential Festival.
Gaining these growing audiences is due to mainly to the success of the acclaimed Michael Boyd album. To sustain, DJ Brown has been writing new material this year in preparation for a new album. New song "Run Through The Mines" was debuted during their Cover Club session, at Nomad Recording Studio, and stands a very good chance of being included on their next album when they start recording. The new song is chill, but intense and is destined to be stuck in your head. If you see them at any of their upcoming shows, there's a great chance you'll hear some of the new material, including "Run Through The Mines", but for now here's their Cover Club original:
