Griffin House (born April 21, 1980) is an American acoustic singer-songwriter from Springfield, Ohio. It's said that he didn't start playing guitar until he was away at college, and his only previous experience as a singer came in a high school play - but as soon as he learned basic chords, he began to write songs. It was in 2001 that he began to be a recognised performer, issuing his first independent release, Upland, in 2003
