Gryphon Rue on Bandcamp.
Gryphon Rue makes me want to steal Tom Ripley’s sweater vest and invest in a medium-sized boat and only live fabulously in my own head. Maybe you’ll be invited. Y’all know my rule that I’ll listen to anything with a good drummer. Sexy stardust.

THESE BLOG POSTS ARE MY OWN ANALYSIS, FOR BETTER OR WORSE. I’M PROBABLY WRONG. I PROBABLY LIKE THAT OTHER SONG YOU LIKE. I TAKE MUSIC SERIOUSLY. THAT DOESN’T MEAN *YOU* HAVE TO TAKE ME SERIOUSLY. MY VIEWS DON’T REFLECT MY CLIENTS OR THE PUBLICATIONS AND BRANDS I WORK WITH. REMEMBER WHAT LEONARD BERNSTEIN SAID. THESE ARE JUST NOTES. IT’S JUST NOTES. IT’S *PEOPLE* WHO GIVE MUSIC MEANING. IF WE CAN’T BE THERE FOR THE LITTLE MOMENTS, WE CAN’T BE THERE FOR THE BIG MOMENTS. BE DECENT. IF YOU CAN’T BE DECENT, DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE.
