Griffin stands as one of America’s foremost voices of the
human condition."

"Every Patty Griffin song arrives
fully and perfectly formed, which is perhaps her greatest
gift. Her song writing is honest and compassionate no matter
the subject. Her voice is uniquely compelling, and her
guitar work unfailingly evocative. She's a songwriter at the
top of her already formidable
game."
